Well, look at it this way, the CAR charger adaptor is taking in at least 15+ amps.. 15 amps at 12 volts is like about 180 watts.. at less than an amp, the neuros is only using about 10 watts or so..
and I did have it hooked into a 30 amp circuit in my ex's van (power port) and it never got hot, so I think that the internal regulator is fine as long as you supply a minimum of 800Miliamps (0.8 amps) or more, and between 9 and 14 volts.. no more no less voltage.
I mean c'mon, if it weren't designed to handle that power, then there would be a regulator in the car charger adaptor, open it up and look at it, there is just a current resistor in there to keep from burning out that bright ass LED that's in the adaptor.. lol
