I have been teased for having an electric blanket in my vintage van, whether folks are insinuating I am soft or they are not quite in keeping with a vintage van I am unsure

Anyway, stumbled across this

pretty cool, but I wonder how many minutes you get off the 12 volt before the battery is flat? Not too many I would guess. I have to admit I have camped in a tent with a lekie blankie and generator wiring outside...

And before electric blankets came along, they were called partners!!!

Then consider a Transformer for safety. (this one,240V/17V 4.4 Amp from my Hecla Collection):

I remember some 40 years ago travelling on the show circuit up/down the East coast a young English chap connecting 240v to 12 volt battery.We buried him at Woodford. gordon
