Anyone else had problems with cigarette lighter blowing when you plug in a computer with an inverter/adapter? I got a Mac adapter from Mike Gyver and it worked great for about a week, then the lighter blew. I donıt know if the lighter was just due, or if this is a known problem using computers in a Vanagon. Mine is a 1987. When we get home I thought Iıd get it fixed, but if thereıs a better solution than the standard one (on a 10 amp fuse) Iıd love to know about it. Please p-mail me if you know one.
