One for all you sparks out there in Deliland.
I've aquired a 15" flatscreen that can run on 12v, tha manual says it pulls 33 Watts. Am I right in thinking that this is too much current to pull through the accesory power socket in the back of the L400?
Cheers

Hi Ian.
EDIT: Altered to reflect change in previous post.
33 watts ÷ 12 volts = just under 3 amps running current _________________

Also another thing to note is that the max that can be drawn from the socket is written on the cover.
Well it is on mine anyway not near the Deli tho' at the moment _________________ Beat

Hi Ian
Just a thought, and I believe it's been mentioned before somewhere, but I run my portable Dvd and TV off one of those portable batt booster starter pack thingies. That way you can't run the Deli batt flat Then of course whilst you are driving you can charge it back up from the acc socket.
