Greetings Comrades!
Just the thing to keep her warm when you've got the windows open. The chainstore called "Range" has (at least in Andover) one metre by 1.40 metre blankets that plug into cigarette lighter sockets. They work, they cost £9.99 and draw just under 3 amps. So OK for dynamos.
Keep the peace, MikeN.

I've got one of these.
I used it in the winter during a frosty period for an overnight sleep in the back of a hired Tranist as the journey was too far to one day.
Nice and snug and well recommened.
I ran it off a fully charged leisure battery but didn't seem to zap much power as thermostacially controlled so not on continously.
