Can I plug in the cables from the panel directly to cigarette lighter?

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.

To use the panel on the dashboard, use the short cord provided and plug into the cigarette lighter where you would plug in a cell phone charger or whatnot.

I use a cigarette lighter adaptor and plug it into this extension cable . You can find one on amazon .

Not unless there is some kind of connector out there that goes from regular electric to cigarette lighter. It's very portable, but regular electricity is needed.

Yes, you can, and you would just need an adapter to convert the 12v lighter plug to the 110v which is inexpensive.

Yes, but you'll have to use the included heavy-duty cabling. The skinny cable with the cigarette lighter plug is too light.

unknown about cigarette lighter plug, usually anything over 500 watts come with direct cable clips

no, it needs to be wired directly to the battery with a 30 amp inline fuse fitted. the normal wiring used for a cigarette lighter is too light in gauge to run this unit

The only thing you may need is extra wire, depending on how close you can mount the charge controller to the battery. A cigarette lighterplug is included. This eliminates the need to connect directly to the battery. The cigarette lighter option works only if the socket is alwayspowered.

It requires the AC power supply. I suppose you could plug it into an AC/DC converter and plug that into your cigarette lighter, but at that point I think you are getting more complicated than it's worth.

You should be able to use it from a power inverter that plugs into the lighter and gives you an A/C outlet.

The panel itself would be capable of charging the unit but the supply connector coming from the panel is 2-prong. you would need to find an adapter or change the wire over to a single connector.

Not sure what kind of "dc hook up" you have, but these heaters are AC powered.Theoretically, you could set up a DC to AC cigarette lighter inverter in your car and plug it into that.But, be advised that this heater draws a constant 1,500 watts.So, you would need to get a compatible, higher-amp inverter and hope that your car electronics can handle it.Good luck.

If you have the basic skills then yes. Looks to be a transformer though, you could purchase an auxiliary power port, similar to a cigarette lighter, hard with that and then plug it it. That would be best cause the on/off switch is on the transformer that lugs into the lighter.

This plugs into the cigarette lighter; it is not direct wired to the battery

Yes, it can you simply use the included cigarette lighter connector but remember most autos won't charge to this connection when the ignition is off.
