Wouldn't the capacitance of the car's battery being connected act as a
filter against spikes?
RS
Red, one would think so. However the ESR of the battery is high when i comes to a high voltage short time spike as as been noted.
I had a CB on a cigarette lighter plug about 1978 and stopped at a res stop. I forgot to turn the radio off before I started the car. Poof al gone. BTDT. It won't get you every time but it will eventually
