Does this actually plug into the cigarette lighter? Or just a 12V outlet? What fits in the 12V won't fit in the cigarette lighter in my car.

I've used it a few times. It plugs into the cigarette lighter/accessory plug in the car and then I can plug two devices into the splitter.

Our car (2007 Honda Civic EX) that it is used in doesn't have a "cigarette lighter", it has two 12v outlets...which appear to be the same socket diameter and configuration to the cigarette lighter sockets from the 70's and 80's..??Anyways, works great in our car. Good luck.

Yes, it plugs into the cigarette lighter in my Jeep. I thought this would be exactly the same size as a car cigarette lighter, but maybe your make/model has a smaller lighter. Anyway, it does go in the cigarette lighter port.

As far as I know it fits only 12 volt accessory socket. I got mine to fit 12 volt socket on a power supply for radio equipment.

You don't want to plug it into the cigarette outlet, it draws too much power for that and you'll blow fuses or fry the wiring. You'll want to hook it up directly to the battery.

You cigarette lighter socket/Aux. Socket is likely fused with a 10, 15, 20 amp fuse. An attempt to put anything in that slot and draw meaningful power from it would instantly blow that cigarette lighter socket fuse. So no.

Its a cigarette lighter plug. Just put it in and it will work perfectly. I have it for about 2 months now and there are no problems

Looks like it plugs into a cigarette lighter in your car. I don't see any AC outlet nor do any of the reviewers mention 120V AC ouput. Hope this helps.

no it doesn't, it's just a holder. i bought a charger that plugs into my cigarette lighter.it's a great holder though!

Yes, it charges from your cars cigarette lighter port... I used aligator clips to charge from another 12 volt source... if you do try that make sure you dont hook it up wackwards (like I did)...luckily I only blew the fuse in the charger.

I just got mine and it comes with a 110 volt plug. Cigarette lighter will not work. That would be 12 volts

It actually plugs into your auxillary power/ cigarette lighter outlet in your car. It is not rechargeable but runs off the car battery

Yes , cigarette lighter plug and you have a 12 volt battery. Cord is very long. I plug into outlet on wall run cord up to hook, run cord across ceiling about 3 feet to another hook, down to car, into car @ bottom of door so cover will still fit. Still start car couple times a month. Works well, do recommend

It only works when plugged into the car's cigarette lighter. It does not charge.

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.

You need a cigarette lighter 12volt outlet to plug the lighter into, if you have that, it should work.

No. The adapter plug inserts into car cigarette lighter which draws power from the car battery.

There should be a plug that comes with it so you can just plug it into the outlet in your car. Mine did anyway...

It comes with a 12 volt charger that is compatible with a car's cigarette lighter outlet. I would reccomend getting a separate charger that works with a wall outlet. I didn't like the charger it came with. It isn't built very well and is finicky to get to work correctly.
