Max load on a GTi (BZ) cigarette socket

Im heading out on a summer road trip to south Europe, so im looking at running both the dashcam and a 12v coolbox from the std cigarette socket using a splitter. So my question is will the wiring and fuse cope with the power demand without causing any damage ?

They are typically fused at 20 or 25A. The load of a dashcam is very low, I think it will be perfectly fine.
