Anyone know of a car charger for an IBM laptop?

I have a Thinkpad 600 and a car adapter. It sucks, when the laptop battery gets a little old, it starts to draw too much current and blows the inline fuse of the adapter.

just buy an inverter. its a small metal box with an ac plug on it. you can plug in anything up to the inverters limit. charge anything, run anything. at any local stores or costco or frys or target etc. ~25bux

Mine was 300 watts and two outlets for $25 off eBay. It was a Best Buy returned item (not refurbished, perfect condition, just open package)
