Can I use this in a car so that that power end will be in the cig lighter to charge fast and the data end connected to play music ?

I don't believe so. One end plugs into the device, in my case the LG 4G LTE USB Modem, the other into two USB ports. One supplies power to the modem and the other receives the signal from the modem and transmits it to the computer. The purpose is to enhance the signal by not using some of the USB port signal to power the modem.

I did not keep this unit but returned it. I do not think it a good idea to charge it using a cigarette lighter. It might be very dangerous. Check with professionals in this matter.

Physically connect yes. Logically no. Concern would be the fuse amperage overload (in series) and if your ciggy lighter is always closed so your battery receives a charge when ignition is turned off. It looks good physically but logics meant it likely won't work out a DA boxette.

You can by a $5.00 5W (5V 1Amp) charger at any gas station, corner store or any store that carries ipod/ipad/iphone chargers. my suggestion to you is, get a cigarette lighter USB charger for your car if you plan to use this for a MP3/GPS. I highly suggest that if you are driving to not mess with the device as it is dangerous. If you have to put in another address for the GPS please pull over or have someone else do this for you.

If your car only have lighter port, you can't play music with it. However, you still can charge your cell phone with it.

No it's not a portable charger, it needs to be plugged into the cigarette outlet of your car. From there you plug a USB cable into the front of it for whichever type cord your phone requires.

Yes. What's even better is you can get a $10 power converter that will convert that cigarette lighter into a usb power station, and you can now use this device in your car.

Yes. It's a 12v like car cig lighter. I attached it to my Motorcycle battery so I can charge my phone when riding. Like use gps etc. Make sure you add fuse to wiring!

Yes. It works in the lighter, as well as the power ports on newer vehicles.

Seems to me you can charge it in your car using a voltage inverter plugged into your lighter.

There is a USB converter. It goes into car lighter, and has USB connections other end. Usually pretty cheap, can even find at local dollar stores.

I wouldn't think so. I've used the cigarette lighter in my older vehicle and the phone chargers in the newer vehicles. Works great. If it blows your fuse, replace the fuse and don't try it again would be my advice. I really don't think it will blow your fuse unless you're carrying a toaster oven, microwave, or other super power user around in your car.

Yes, if that dvd player takes power from its cigarette lighter plug or usb (which is unlikely).Basically this device is a fancy usb adapter for car cigarette lighter with splitter for the cig. lighter.

You will have to get an inverter to charge from a car. Auto Zone has them, I bought one that sits in a cup holder and plugs into your cig lighter works great.

No, it's a wall charger. The only way you could use it in your car would be if you had an AC/DC adapter.
