If your intention is to charge the battery DON"T even try it. Not only can you ruin the battery but you can build up pressure in the battery causing it to rupture and it's full of acid. In order to charge it from your car you would need a current limiting circuit that would shut off when the battery is fully charged and that just isn't practical to build. So just get a regulated trickle charger that does not exceed the amperage limit of the battery.

The actual question would be to do what ! Do you want to use it as a boost battery using the cigarette lighter existing socket ? " Not an advisable option " wiring in some vehicle are barely good enough to use the lighter much less to try to start it . (2) To use the ligter socket to charge battery ? .. Well not advisable due to high amps may fry the terminals if left for extended period of time on ,,, Plain get a a slow 500-800ma charger or trickle charger maintainer no more than 1amp max...

Yes. Just rotate the 2 metal blades in the back of the device, and plug it into a wall socket. The cigarette lighter plug is for use in the car, an you plug the wire into the top of the battery holder

To use this plug you need to conect first direct on batery of the car. So you can use as actual lighter

Hi. You need 12V power outlet . Plug item in the cigaret power outlet (12V) of the car. Then item work. Thank you

What I found was that the power connector (cigarette lighter adapter) needed to be spliced into the power connector before it would work. The wiring diagram leaves a lot to be desired.

Maybe you could using a 110V converter that plugs into the cigarette lighter socket. I would check with the manufacture!

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

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

You have to wire it in. I just wired it to a 12 volt lighter plug and it works perfectly fine.

Make sure it is charged up and then connect the cables on each side just like you would jumper cables. If I remember right, you turn the switch on the back to "on" and then start your car. Works great!!

Everyone beat me to it - and they are all correct. You might be able to scavenge a lighter plug off of some other device that you have sitting around and attach it to the ring terminals, but be absolutely certain that you have the polarity correct before you attempt to rig something up, or you will find yourself with a damaged electrical system - or worse!

You could run it like "Gravy" suggests: car battery >> cigarette lighter >> power inverter (ie AC out) >> adapter that comes with LP-2020A+ >> LP-2020A+ power input.An easier way might be: car battery >> (some sort of capacitor / circuit protection) >> LP-2020A+ power input. You'd probably need to know more about car electronics to go with the latter, though.

The cord has a cigarette lighter plug on one end. So you would have to cut it off and sort the wires out and go from their.

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.

This only plugs in to an auxiliary jack on both ends of the cable (i.e. Aux jack on stereo and headphone jack on cellphone/ipod). So no, it doesn't plug into a cigarette lighter. Maybe you're looking for a car charger...?

Yes. A cigarette lighter adapter will absolutely work. You would need to connect a miniature plug on the other end that fits where the wall supply normally goes.
