I have one of those little solar panels that plugs into the cigarette lighter port.
It also has a 1/8" round plug in the middle of its cord. That is, there is a cord going from the solar panel to the 1/8" plug, and then another cord with the 1/8" socket going to the lighter plug. Make sense?
Anyway, when I put my voltmeter on the 1/8" plug, I get a reasonable reading, volts in the teens. But when I put ithe neter on the cigarette lighter plug, in various spots, the readings are all around 65-70v. It's hard to get a good contact on the slippery plugs with my hand in a cast, but it seems pretty sure.
What the heck is going on here, and am I nuts?
