Anyway, my main concern when I heard your recommendations was that nothing in the car might overheat or burn out. My aux power is off the 2nd battery, but my cigarette lighter (Ooops it's CIGAR lighter in a Land Rover) is off ignition, so I was thinking I could leave IGN ON for awhile if I was powering something off the CIGAR lighter.
Unless someone's being playing around with your wiring, you will find your cigar lighter is on the Aux circuit. So no need to turn on the ignition.Quote:

My Rangie has 2 factory fitted 12 volt power supply sockets that will accept cigarette lighter type plugs. One in the dash, one in the rear of the centre console. Both are ignition on power only.
Oops .. how unusual ... how typically Landie ;):D:pQuote:
