I actually used to do something similar with my radio equipment. A bit much for the cigarette lighter (usually rated at 10a not 20). So I just parked the car, set up the aerial and wires straight to battery.
For clarification, my radio has inline fuses right at the start of the positive and negative wires. If you’ve ever seen wires melted into people’s carpet because they didn’t have a fuse on their hardwired car electrics… Yeah.

Pros don’t use the cigarette lighter!

Wiring everything straight to the battery is a classical move for amateur auto electricians, I’ve done similar myself.

Oh definitely, I’m not that rough.
