Electric blanket issues when plugged into the truck

[that1guy]

Not sure what the deal is with a new electric blanket I got for a camping trip. It's fine when plugged into the wall but no heat when plugged into the truck. The controller for the blanket turns on and I can set it to high, but no heat to the blanket, which is 100w. Might just be the blanket but I thought I'd see if this is expected or points at a potential issue with pro power

That is super weird. I can say that I ran a walmart electric blanket from my truck and it worked just fine, so it's more specific than just electric blankets and PPOB

That is peculiar…the blanket should be oblivious to the power source as afaik Pro Power is a pure sine wave...and so I doubt its the blanket not being able to handle the power being supplied (some devices will freak with modified sine waves, but that’s not an issue here)…may sound like a silly question but after the blanket control is told to turn the blanket on, does it remain powered on, as in, it doesn’t cut out?
