Hi List,

Please excuse my ignorance on this, but I got one of these 12-volt coolers
as a wedding present:

and I have a couple of questions about it before I go running off to the
mountains with it.  It runs through the cigarette lighter, so is it going to
suck a ton of power if I keep it going when I go camping?

Should I look into setting up an additional battery and run it, as well as
other accessories that I plan on adding like lighting and a possible
inverter for a laptop, directly from the addtional battery?

I've looked in the archives and know that there has been much discussion of
the second battery, but not much talk about the real neccessity of
installing one.

Thanks in advance,
joe t.
