Vehicle converters

Does pluggin my laptop into one of those AC converters for the cigarette lighter affect it?

affect what?

low voltage to my battery maybe? I'm not as familiar with voltages and wattages...does it give me the same amount of power as plugging into the house?

As long as the converter your using is able to offer the wattage the Laptop needs you'll be fine. The converter regulates everthing to make sure your getting good steady power.

It converts the 12v DC from the car to 120v AC that you would have in your house.
Here's an example of a converter:
