Electrickery revisitedMy car is a bit damp inside, having had a leak from one of the rear windows. "Aha!", I thought, "I'll put the fan heater and the dehumidifier on in the car. That'll dry it out nicely..."
So I got the big long extension lead, ran it out to the car, got the fan heater and the dehumidifier, carried them out to the car, and started to set it all up.
Then my eyes lit upon my inverter (which lets you run mains stuff in the car) sitting on the seat. "Hmm. The inverter is 350 watts, the dehumidifier is 250 watts, I could run it off the inverter. No wait, that's stupid, it'll flatten the battery. Hey, I know, it would be great if I had a thing like an inverter but the other way round, so I could plug my car into the mains and charge up the... no, wait, that's a battery charger."
Length? 45 metres if you unroll the whole thing.
