<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>hi everybody,</DIV>
<DIV>bought one of those igloo thermoelectric coolers today for this summer's camping activities.&nbsp; well, i plugged it into my lighter and it blew the cig lighter/radio fuse.&nbsp; so i tried it once more and it blew the fuse again.&nbsp; the package says that it draws less then 6 amps, but on my 90 gl the cig lighter fuse is 15 amps.&nbsp; what is going on here?&nbsp; am i doing something wrong.&nbsp; i tried the igloo service line but of course they are closed on sundays.&nbsp; anyone else have these coolers?&nbsp; i plugged the cooler in the house through the 120v adapter and it works fine.&nbsp; could it be that it draws too heavy for our vans?&nbsp; the cord for the cooler has its own fuse and that is fine.&nbsp; i am really bummed out here if this does not work b/c i was looking forward to some cold ones when in the backcountry this summer.</DIV>
<DIV>any input would be greatly appreciated.</DIV>
