Does anyone make a cigarette light/power outlet adaptor?
Like the title says... does anyone make an adaptor to put into the cigarette lighter to make it into a power outlet? Dumb reason, but I was watching a movie with my gf in my car on my laptop the other day (I know.. how romantic, huh? What she DID'NT know, was that it was really a date for me and my Evo, my gf was just there.... bawahah... anyways...) it ran out of batteries. I was wondering if anyone makes an adaptor so i can put it in... that way I can add a power strip and hook up my laptop, microwave, mini fridge, shop light, etc. lol. You get the idea. I'm making this into a long thread for no appearent reason. If anyone knows where to get one, let me know!

they should have one for about 30 bucks but I think they make a specific one for laptops. Also check with the manufacturer of your laptop they sometime have DC car kits as well

Make sure you get one that can handle the wattage of whatever you're plugging into it. And keep an eye on your battery voltage cause an inverter can put a huge draw on your batt.
