How is it powered? Does it be able to use from 12V cigarette?

It doesn't come with an adapter. I bought a 12v cigarette adapter and wired it to the power supply. It works great.

LUCKY YOU... I am an electronics technician... so I got out my screwdriver and my digital voltmeter and found the answer for you. This unit I have is an X2 model. I believe there is another model that is an older version that might still be sold that DOES use an actual 12 volt power adaptor that plugs 12 volts into the unit. My unit plugs directly to 110 ac with a little ac cord that is UNPLUGGABLE from the back of the unit. I used a small Phillips to open up the case... and... The little power supply inside the unit is on it's OWN LITTLE pc board and is easily removed HOWEVER it puts out 3 different voltages, none of them are 12 volts. It puts out 3.3V, 16V. and 22V. This little unit is about the size of a standard paperback book.. a little smaller. Keep in mind, you could purchase a small 12v to 110 volt converter that plugs into your cigarette lighter if you want to power this off of 12 volts. Be sure to read my other reviews about this unit, as it has some quirks such as OTHER REMOTE controls such as your TV remote may cause UNDESIRED operation. for example, say you push the VOLUME UP button to turn up the volume on your TV. When you press the button to do that.... the channel may change or other things on THIS UNIT. etc etc.

No power is supplied by this wire. It is simply a wire with two different connectors enabling the user to connect a male 12 V cigarette lighter tip to a separate wire coming from the battery. E.g., on a motorcycle you'd have a different wire coming from the battery to this, which would give you the battery's 12 Volts and max Amps to the female cigarette socket on the outflow end. You'd then plug in your preferred charger into this end. You determine the output Volts and Amps by whatever charger you plug into this wire.All this unit does is to give you a female cigarette socket to use as you wish. There are no electrical components other than the wire and two plug-in adapters. It is an extension cord. No power is supplied by this wire.

It's powered from the car - designed to be plugged into cigarette lighter, but one can conect it directly to car electrical system.

It has a micro USB cable and a standard size USB port. It puts out 3.6 A total. If a thing is meant to be charged with either, then it can be plugged into the charger for charging. How long it will take, is another matter and depends on how much current the thing you are using requires for a full charge. A small battery will fully charge in a short time. A large battery will take much longer. I doubt if an electronic cigarette has much of a battery, so it should work pretty fast. In any case, you can't hurt either device as long as both are 5 v.

You can. I wired mine into a fused 12 adaptor (10 bucks at Rafio Shack) that I plug in to my 12v/cig outlet when we use the units.

This device is only powered by a cigarette lighter or 12 volt power outlet of similar nature

it has to be plugged in....probably would work if you blow the smoke into it

Yes, runs on a 12v battery. If you tried to run off your cigarette lighter, you could only used around 1/10 of the power (100 watts) before blowing the cigarette lighter 10 amp fuse. This unit designed to connect directly to 12v car battery.

No, the unit draws power from the cigarette outlet. If unplugged it won't do much of anything.

Not battery powered. Has a transformer that plugs into 120VAC. The transformer output is low voltage AC.

Get an adjustable power cigarette port power supply and plug that into the unit. Make sure you have the right size plug on it though.

can only be connected to battery. No sources like DC plug or 12V adaptor for cigarett lighter.

This product is not battery powered. Rather, it runs on electricity provided by plugging the unit into a secure electricalsocket via a long extension cord. Very light and quite powerful. The two speed feature is quite good.

Whenever there is power to the 12 outlet it is pluged into, yes.Some vehicals supply power to those 12v outlets/Cig lighters only when the key is on. And some supply power for 5 -10 min after the vehical is off or until the headlights turn off (courtesy lights). Some older vehicals supplied power continuously.
