Hi all. I've tapped into the positive connector (on block on top of fridge) to use vans' DC supply for fans. I'm also adding a 12V power adaptor for shore power to fans. (I have the appropriate switch in place) Since vehicles' ground is being used for "house" supply to fans etc., can I also use the vehicles' ground for the 12V wall wart? I think it's ok (and would work) but could use the advice of any electrical gurus. Can't think....... need lunch. Many thanks!
