Is it possible to plug this into a car cigarette lighter? Or is there an adapter than will work for this purpose?

It does not plug into a car cigarette lighter, however it does have an extra long cord and it is well worth dealing with the cord.

No adapter comes with the vacuum, however if you had a 12V DC to AC car inverter than you could run the vacuum while the car was running.

No on the car cigarette lighter. Unsure on an adapter but if there was one I think it would not work as well due to the power required to run the motor, if at all. However, as the previous person before me said the cord is extra long and worth dealing with. I agree 100% with them, this vac is great.

For my car, I have two ways of charging. The cigarette lighter adapter was defective and did not fit the phone. The other means is by USB which does work.

I'm pretty sure you can convert to cigarette lighter plug I use a 12v 4.5ah sealed lead acid alarm battery cheap and it works great.

No, but you can buy a y plug that converts your outlet into 2 outlets http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Dual-Port-Cigarette-Lighter-Adapter-Black/dp/B00511PTWM

It does not come with a cigarette lighter adapter. For charging car batteries I'd recommend using the adapter with clamps, what you would find on most battery chargers. The semi-permanently mounted adapters with terminal ends are great for motorcycles, but the terminals are far too small to use on car batteries.Some cars only have the cigarette lighter active when the ignition switch is in the accessory mode. This would make it difficult to use on many cars.

Yes I bought a Cigarette lighter adapter on amazon (http://goo.gl/ZuxNFg) and wired it onto the end of the Red and black wires. It works perfect when moving my radio from vehicle to vehicle.

Jack, I do not have any difficulty to plug it into my cigarette lighter. You can try to do the following. First, squeeze the two metal pieces on the plug all the way in and hold them for a while. Now try to plug it in. You may need to repeat this step few times. If it still does not work, you will need to use a file to smooth or even reduce the edges of those metal pieces on your plug. Make sure you don't do too much because it may become too loose. Good luck.

Please don't try using this inverter with a cigarette adapter as it's power level will probably exceed the amperage limit of the fuse for the cigarette lighter. You may even damage the wiring in your vehicle doing so.

You can buy such a thing. Any piece of equipment that has the option of using a 12V Cigarette Lighter socket will naturally work. Other than that, you would need to use a 6V power regulator (which is very simple/cheap to make). I am assuming that you need something more than USB power, which already exists on the unit via USB Charge Ports. Here at Amazon, you want something like this, which is pretty easy to implement: http://www.amazon.com/Converter-Module-12v-20v-Supply-Adapter/dp/B00OTQWK9U/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1428944314&sr=8-8&keywords=12v+to+6v+power+regulator I think I will go buy one of these for myself today, thanks for bringing this up! I am sure that I can get this to fit inside and install a jack.

This lighter comes with a USB cord (about 6" long) that you plug into your computer or you can buy a 12v adapter for your car. I do both and it works really well.

Needs to be plugged into the car lighter, it's a really great adapter tho!!!

The power supply is not included with the charger, and it can use anything that can supply the necessary current via a USB port. Therefore, yes, you can purchase any USB power adapter that plugs into the car's cigarette lighter receptacle. I can imagine that you would want one that can output 2A of current.And as other people have mentioned, the device is likely to slide off the surface of the charging pad, as your car accelerates or brakes, so a car is probably not a very appropriate place to use a wireless charging pad that does not have a way to hold the device in position.

Hi Bryan,So your car does not have a cigarette lighter socket? Whoops! Unfortunately I am not familiar with what new cars have and have not with regards to a 12V DC output. The item that you have bought requires either a USB or a cigarette lighter type connector. I guess that I would ask your car guy if you have such an output connector in the car or can one be installed. I have not heard of this before. Good luck.r

No. This is for your home. Or any where that a "cig lighter style outlet" is needed and not present. So lets say u have a car charger for ur cell phone. U could plug the cell charger into this device if it was plugged in say at home in the house.I use it for my portable xm radio that plugs into my boat/ car. Using this I can plug it in at home or anywhere else I travel for parties ect and dont have to find a car outlet.
