Does this charger have a cigarette lighter plug? Will it charge on cloudy days?

Yes, it comes with the plug for your 12v accessory hole. Mine is plugged in right now, in the garage which has some small windows. It is overcast and my volt meter was registering from 2.75 to 4.65 volts. It is odd that value fluctuated from one end to the other every second, but it is producing energy. It also has a small blue LED that lets you know it is charging.

It does have a cigarette charger and it will charge on cloudy days maybe not as much as direct sun but It will charge

It comes with a cigarette lighter plug so you can run it off an external battery. The included charger charges 2 batteries at once. Love it

I have never used the plug and it does come with a charger for 2 batteries. Unfortunately only one side charges after only a few months. Not pleased about that. The light itself is great but one of the batteries comes loose if I go over a bump with my tripod on dolly or bump the light.

Nope, it does not. I prefer the no light as my previous Motorola charger had an irritating blue light which would be a hassle to the eyes on freeways.

it works with visible and UV light, so it needs to be in the direct sun to give you currents close to specs. If it's cloudy, it will still work, but not give you much current. In a storage unit it will give you zero.

Yes, a cloudy day will always affect a solar panel. How cloudy it is determines how much it will affect it. Your only producing about .8 amps at 120v on this panel so just figure you will get half that on cloudy days.

Frankly I don't remember if it comes with it or not. I think it does. I have tested it and it works great on a cigarette lighter plug. Very happy with this unit.

Unsure how many amps it draws, but yes, it does have a cig lighter charger and we used it for the first time today in our jeep, and it worked well.

NO. You will need a USB - car charger. Look under Lumina car charger. Good Luck :-)

yes it does, although i imagine if you have multiple days of cloudy or rainy days, you might not get the light after that

No it does not, however I am sure you can purchase a cigarette power inverter for you cigarette lighter then you can plug the charger into the inverter.

I have two of them and have tried them on 'cloudy days' and they don't charge very fast. It will take a day or two to get much charge at all.

Yea, it has a cord that plugs into a cigarette lighter socket. The light does not have a battery and won't work if you unplug it from the cig lighter socket. I prefer this product because it is light weight and easier to hold.

Good sunlight maybe a few hours. Cloudy I would say an all day charge. It will work though.

That would be a question for the manufacturer of your car. Bose does not have specific information on car specifications on the switching of the cigarette lighter outlet. The Bose charger will function whenever current is sent to it.

No it does not have a cigarette lighter plug. You only need a power source if you want the light to work. The compass is magnetic
