i recently bought a laptop and i got a power invereter also. it's supposed to be 175W, and a laptop should use only 35-40W, but when i put the laptop in and i turn it on the thing goes in overload prottection and it shuts off. could this be some issues with the unit, or my cigarette lighter ? also i could not get any amperage reading thru the cig lighter, but the voltage is 12.46V.
