Hi people,
Here's my dilemma... I have an air compressor that runs at 10A, however it has a 12V cigarette lighter head on the power lead only enabling me to use it in a car. I really need to be able to use this compressor in the home. I have searched for adapters/transformers and the best I can find seem to run 1A appliances. I also looked into powering from my desktop's USB port however these can only support 500mA.
I'm at a loss as to what to do, any ideas would be much appreciated. I'd consider purchasing a new air compressor that runs from the mains if that turns out to be the cheaper alternative?
Thanks in advance,
Ross
