Using Car Accessories At Home

rajatsingh78 · 16th September 2010, 18:13

Hello Guys,

I have a car air pump that can be plugged and used in car cigaratte lighter socket, I need it to use it home to fill some balloons (it has some attachment),

How is it possible ?

I have an inverter at home, any DIY suggestions?

Cheers,
Rajat
