[QUOTE="aceb, post: 800647, member: 268811"] Rather than having the inverter plugged into a cigarette or accessory socket I'd put a second battery in via an isolator, hardwire the inverter to it and fix a 13A socket somewhere in the van. The isolator is designed to allow the second battery to charge from the alternator but prevent the main vehicle battery being flattened by the inverter. The idea of a second battery is more common in high power amateur radio or ICE installations. This page explains it a bit more _http://vandwellers.org/isolator/index.html [/QUOTE]
