sorry if i didn't see this in the description, but is this battery powered or do you hook it in to your cigarette lighter or something? Thanks.

This is direct connected to your ignition switch or vehicle alarm. It is not battery operated.

I think you have to hook it up with your cigarette lighter or car electronics. That's why I never installed it.....There's always the possibility that I'm wrong. :)

I ended up returning this because it required wiring that was beyond my skill set.

It's powered by 12v leads... Either use through your alarm system aux or straight from your vehicles electrical system���

I am not sure how it works? It looks like to me it has to be hooked into a power source somehow. I could use some help here as well.How do you hook it up?

Hi Cinthya, this device is a power converter 110Volts AC to 12Volts DC. To use this it must be plugged into a household style outlet then you may plug a small item into the 12Volt cigarette lighter style receptacle. Just remember there is no power without it being plugged in. The reason I bought it is I own a small refrig cooler that plugs into car lighter. This device allows me to take the cooler into motel room at night and keep the cooler running. Hope this information helps you! Gene

This is like an oven, you need car's electricity to use. Just plug in your car's cigarette plug and it does all the work for you. You should have one if you spend alot of time on the road.

You need to connected to a 12 volt battery and is very important to use at least no. 4 cable to be sure the stuffs you connect runs well. Is too big for a car lighter but work.

It plugs into a cigarette outlet. If that is the question then the answer is yes. It does not have an additional outlet for a cigarette lighter.

I hooked it up to the extra headlight wire that was taped up. You do not need to run a big power cord from the battery. Just find a power wire in the area.

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 you have to have a 110 power plug. I use an extension core and had a 110 volt Inverter put in my car, it seems to work fine that way. But to answer your question, No it is Not battery Operated. Hope this helps ☺

It's cable powered. By a too short cable in my opinion. Battery powered would be so great, but no... Primitive mind hasn't perfected so a glorious thing.

I only use mine with an adapter and plug it into a wall socket. I you leave it plugged into your cigarette lighter and the engine isn't running, it will run down the battery. My cigarette lighter doesn't have power unless the car is running, anyway.

Cigarette lighter or you can hook directly to your battery. I have a cigarette lighter in my center console so I ran the power under the seats into center console to plug them in

It comes with a cigarette light plug-in cable, which you can use to connect to your car. To ensure that I don't completely discharge my car battery, I run the engine whilst charging the battery-box.

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 one is plugged into a wall socket. The battery powered ones are weak in my opinion and do not last as long.
