How long a cigarette lighter cord does the unit come with? I am wondering if I can have the unit in the backseat and run the cord between the seats...

the cord is 74 inches long. it has been a wonderful acessory for traveling in my van or my rv. you can buy cigarette plug extension cord on line for 7 dollars. if you do get one, be sure to carry extra fuses that can be found only at radio shack. the fuse is located in the cigarette plug. it blew on us on a sunday morning. we have to wait until the store is open. fuses can not be found at auto part stores. very easy to change. good luck.

This is a popular question which is understandable......I actually measured it with my trusty tape measure. The cord that goes from the cigarette lighter to the compressor unit is about ten feet. The hose part, which goes from the compressor to your tire, is about 18 inches.

It has a 4 ft. cord. I used one on a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee (4.7L V8), a 1989 Cadillac Seville (4.5L V8), and a 1994 Ford F150 (5.7L V8) with plenty of cord to run it to the front of the vehicle. Had no issues in many years of use, but I leave it on a timer so that its not on all the time, just turns on a few hours before I leave for work in the morning

It's about 6'0" long. It's clamped in the back of my truck a double cab, and the cord reaches the cigarette lighter plug in the dash with no problems. The cord runs behind the back seat and under the front seat.

There is a cord that that connects the unit to the cigarette lighter in your car. There is a built in battery which is charged thru that cord. no need for a separate charger.

As far as I know this unit should be wired to a 12 volt battery source on your vehicle with the appropriate gauge wire in relation to the distance from the battery to the inverter. It says in the manual the size you will need. It should not be plugged into the cigarette lighter. In fact you will have to buy a wiring kit for this inverter as one is not supplied with it. The vehicle does not have to be running for this inverter to work but will have to be run intermittent to keep the battery charged.

The unit runs off your car's battery when you attach the cable that comes with it to the cigarette lighter. I believe it charges during this use. I think you can use it without the cable for about two hours--good for when you take it with you on a walking tour. There is a USB cable you use when you want to download changes to the map. I don't know if the unit gets charged at this time as well. The unit comes with both cables and a window mount. I ordered a weighted "pillow" mount so I could hide the unit from potential thieves when not in use. That mount sits on my dashboard and doesn't move while I'm driving. Some states have regulations regarding the mounting of the unit on the windshield. The unit runs off your car's battery when you attach the cable that comes with it to the cigarette lighter.

The standard cord will reach any outlet in your car. I store the frig. On the back seat and run the cord into the outlet in the console. But, it also reaches the dash outlet.

This just comes with the car adapter. You might be able to purchase another cord, but probably not worth it. I would look for other ones that are dual power.

Comes with a cord (USB ) that you can plug into your computer usb port or there is an adapter that works with cigarette lighter in car.

The unit comes with a USB extension cable that gets routed from the back of the unit to where ever you want. Some people route it into their glove box. I have mine come up between my front seats at my center console.

I use my unit in a 2012 f 150 truck Plugged in from the cigarette lighter it reaches in to the back seat I recommend you get the ac adapter ( just a few bucks) then you will be able to an extention cord RR

The power cord does not plug into the cigarette lighter, only an outlet. Therefore, while an 18 foot long power cord sounds great, it is not nearly long enough if your car is not parked in a garage.

The cord is the same size as in the picture. Its fine if ur using it in the car which it is a car charger. I dont see a problem with the length. I can only guess ppl are trying to charge it up front and sit in the backseat which wont work out. I have a charger in the backseat so my son sits back there no problem.

I've had mine for years now, but it came with a cassette adapter at the time and a power cord for the cig. lighter. The best thing to do is get the car kit- cheap on ebay- and it has a cradle for the radio. You plug your pwr into the lighter pwr, and then use a basic male to male headphone sized jack to connect to your car radio input (I have two Subarus that have such a jack- aux. input). I have a car cradle in each car for the radio and the home kit as well. I think it's a great little radio.

It plugs into the cigarette lighter in my car. I am not sure how long it will run when not plugged in. I haven't tried it. I seem to remember it said maybe 3 hours. I could be wrong.

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.
