Hi all,
We are prepping our 87 Wolfsburg automatic for a trip from NY to Orlando for 
the kids first Disney trip.  Now today, while hoofing it through our local 
wherehouse type store we happened upon a small AC/DC color TV/VCR combo with 
cigarette lighter power plug (now we�re not real TV addicts but the thought 
of making a trip of that distance with a 10 & 2yr old in the back is a 
challenge that a few well placed feature flix could help us conquer)  Is 
there any threshold of power draw that I should look for in such a plug in 
unit running a stock alternator?  Could such a unit hasten the demise of an 
otherwise healthy charging system?  Would it help that it is an automatic and 
that in order to keep up with highway speed, revs of steady 3800ish is not 
uncommon?
TIA
