i will be using, ( plugged in to a 4 in 1 lighter adapter ) ( but not all at the same time i hope lol ) sat nav ( dont know the make unfortuantly ), electric coolbox, portable dvd player, inverter (125), mobile phone (house, not incar) charger connected to the inverter ), cd player ( wired to the audio), this is not for day to day running it is while i travel accross the country, any info would help, also, where is the reverse light switch?, and do i have to dismantle the clutch to get at it?, thank you in advance, regards, jenny
Yes, you better avoid using it all at the same time - it's a distraction, not an electrical problem. ;-D
Sat nav, mobile and the CD player shouldn't be a problem. An inverter with a 125 VA output (?) draws around 10A at full load, so it all totals to less than 16 A wich is a typical cigarette lighter socket capacity (fuse rating).
The coolbox, depending on the type will draw around 5...8A, so it's either-or with the some of the equipment.
For more accurate results, collect and sum all the amp ratings from the product identification labels on your equipment. To be on the safe side, the total should be around 12...14A for continuous service, otherwise the fuse may overheat and blow after some time.
This kind of load isn't a problem if you drive on open roads, but in stop-and-go driving, wintertime or both it may be. You shouldn't use all equipment with engine off - it takes less than 5 hours to drain a fully charged 72 Ah battery and even less to prevent a cold engine start.
The reverse switch is TYPICALLY on the gearbox and accessible from below. You shouldn't dismantle anything to get to it, or it's poor engineering.
