Subject: thermoelectric cooler problems
Content-Type: text/html
<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>hi everybody,</DIV>
<DIV>bought one of those igloo thermoelectric coolers today for this summer's camping activities. well, i plugged it into my lighter and it blew the cig lighter/radio fuse. so i tried it once more and it blew the fuse again. the package says that it draws less then 6 amps, but on my 90 gl the cig lighter fuse is 15 amps. what is going on here? am i doing something wrong. i tried the igloo service line but of course they are closed on sundays. anyone else have these coolers? i plugged the cooler in the house through the 120v adapter and it works fine. could it be that it draws too heavy for our vans? the cord for the cooler has its own fuse and that is fine. i am really bummed out here if this does not work b/c i was looking forward to some cold ones when in the backcountry this summer.</DIV>
<DIV>any input would be greatly appreciated.</DIV>
