The answer is pretty simple, NO. This is because the loads required to run a 1000 watt power inverter would quickly blow fuses in car cigarette lighter plug circuit. The DC load can reach almost 100 AMPS on a 12 volt DC inverter rated at 1000 watts. Of course and inverter only draws power based on the actual load, a large load will cause problems. Here is a great inverter that works well with Car Cigarette Lighter Plug connectors.
