Kyros Car Charger?

I got a car charger for my 7015 at radioshack, 5v 2.5a. My first question is will this wear down my car battery, since it is a small car?And my other question is that I need a car to outlet converter. There's one at Walmart but it doesn't say whether it can handle 2.5a, should I assume it can

Car headlights are about 100 watts. 5V x 2.5A = 12.5 watts, but I think the Coby pulls at most 5 watts, probably 2 or 3 if it's close to charged. If your car battery can power the headlights you should be fine. Parked for days (weeks) with the car off and the charger plugged in might be an issue.
I'm assuming the radioshack 5v 2.5a is USB. And that you have an adapter for USB to Coby --- not a standard item or easy to find. I bought mine in France, it's for a Motorola Phone. I've seen two that work, both had a little yellow band on the Phone (Coby) end of the cable.
