No.

I am surprised that your Car USB converter doesn't work well. That should be 5 - 5.5v. Is it designed for PPCs or maybe intended for a cell phone. A car certainly has the ability to source sufficient current, but you can build a converter that doesn't handle enough. For the most part every such converter that I've bought, that is sold on a PPC based site, has worked fine.
