My latest 2 cars, both Toyota and 4+ years old, have two-prong 110 AC outlets
that can source about 1 amp before the fuse blows.
Now I want more amperage so I can design spreadsheets on my laptop while
brewing coffee and watching TV on the way to work.!

RE: Cigarette socket in vehicles
Perhaps because the cigarette lighter came before electronic gadgets in
vehicles and when gadgets did start to come to market they had to use what was
available with the result that the whole after-market gadget industry is
subsequently geared up to use the lighter socket as a power source

By the way.
I don't understand why cars still don't have specialised sockets for
electronic equipment.
The cigarette sockets likes to lose contact (it is my experience).

Subject: Cigarette socket in vehicles
I have learnt that cigarette sockets supply two voltages: 12 or 24 volts.
12-volt sockets are widely used in light duly vehicles while 24-volt sockets
in heavy duty vehicles. The sockets are identical in terms of configuration
and dimensions. Is there any mechanism to prevent a 12-volt equipment from
being plugged in a 24-volt socket?
Thanks,
Scott
