Most cigarette lighter sockets in vehicles are fused at 15 Amps, and fuses work the same regardless of the direction of current flow. The fuse does not know if the current is flowing (TO whatever is plugged into the socket), or if current is flowing (FROM a charger plugged into the socket) in either case if you exceed the current rating of the fuse, the fuse will blow, fuses are by directional but will blow at the same amount of current regardless of the direction of flow. So look at the fuse for the cigarette and if you are going to plug a charger into that circuit the fuse value in Amps is the largest amount of current your charger will ever be able to supply to the vehicle from the charger plugged into the lighter socket.
Now if you were connecting the charger to the battery connections of the vehicle then you could use a charger with a higher current capacity.
