Maplin special.

(1/3) > >>

turtle:
Maplins have a special on 150Watt inverters, enough to run that DVD player (keep the kids quite in the back) or the laptop to run the GPS software, idea unit small and compact.

At half price £14.98 a bargin. Our local Maplins had a big stock of them, piled high right by the door, which I seemed to miss and walked past them, doh!

strapping young lad:
pardon my ignorance but how are they wired to the vehicle and how do they affect the battery?

turtle:
They come pre-wired to go direct into the Cig Lighter socket or you can wire them direct.

Shouldn't cause any extra battery drain.

Bob696:
my local maplin had the 300 W version for £19.95 and the 600 W for £79.95.

Me thinks they know not what they do !  (oh n I picked up the 300W version)

thermidorthelobster:
A friend of mine bought a 150W inverter, wired it in, and to check it was working, plugged the angle grinder in...

Pop!

Doh...
