can you use this in a power port position instead of cigarette lighter?

If you mean such as a 12-volt charger, I'm not sure. Better to ask the pros (i.e. Best Buy for example.)

yes but I will tell you that the cable got where it would not work after about 3 months....I bought another cable and used it with the cigarette plug. I would not recommend this to anyone. Just my opinion

Yes. Go to home depot or comparable store and buy Bernzomatic brand. I think the fill port is rather universal and you may even be able to use a brand for filling cigarette lighters - not sure on that but worth trying.

Sure. The power input is just a cable with cigarette lighter on the car-supply end, and medium size coaxial DC plug on at the device. You could easily cut or remove the cigarette plug and wire to a fused *12 Volt DC * power source in the vehicle

No. This is for your home. Or any where that a "cig lighter style outlet" is needed and not present. So lets say u have a car charger for ur cell phone. U could plug the cell charger into this device if it was plugged in say at home in the house.I use it for my portable xm radio that plugs into my boat/ car. Using this I can plug it in at home or anywhere else I travel for parties ect and dont have to find a car outlet.

The port we used was just the accessories port that had nothing to do with the cigarette lighter. Didn't think they put lighters in vehicles any more. We just plugged it in, put the panel on the dash, left for 5 weeks. Worked beautifully.

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

Hello, Yes you are able to run it where ever power is. If you do, you might need to look at if your lighter is continuous power or does it shut after you shut the car down. but either way Answer is yes.

Yes, definitely! You will not lose functionality of the outlet. With this converter, you don't have to "tap in" necessarily in the traditional way. All you have to do is remove the fuse for the cigarette lighter, insert the converter, then insert the 20 amp fuse into the converter. Just make sure you install the appropriate fuse for the other device into the second fuse slot on the coverter.

No device works that way to my knowledge. The cigarette lighter/auxillary plug in your vehicle isn't wired in such a way that the battery can draw power from it.

Hey there... Yes, you can use it while it's connected to the power outlet. It doesn't have a dock station.-

Yes, that is what I used. Works great. Need an adapter port for like in a cigarette lighter on the battery pack.

Doesn't have to be if you have a bunch of D cell batteries. Other option is to use the cigarette lighter adapter that comes with it.

Yes, You use your existing cigarette lighter. The power cord that goes from your cigarette lighter to the unit plugs into the back of the mount. Then from the mount is a power cord that plugs into the phone. You can not plug the cord from the cigarette light directly into the phone because they have different ends.This system does not have It's own power system as advertised. This is a nice system for the money though.

No, it is designed to go the other way. This power supply is made to plug into a 120 Volt outlet (like in your house) to produce power like the power available from a cigarette lighter in your car. It is made to run devices that normally run from your car cigarette lighter, when plugged into a wall socket, it will NOT power your laptop from your car cigarette lighter.

You can do it both ways ,, but I would hard wired them ,You don't need eh DC adapter , just a plug and wired it to that for the cigarette part ,, good luck

Yes you can, input is 12v DC so you can go directly from cigarette lighter to the booster. Battery charge progress is displayed on the LCD screen and will tell you when to disconnect.

It should in your cigarette lighter, if you have one. FYI, I bought this and it didn't hold up very well, broke in less than 4 months. I've bought other cheapie ones like this one on Amazon and they don't last long. I recommend you check out Radio Shack, you can buy 2 and 3 port amps, I bought the 3 port one and it's held up very well, have had it for almost 2 years and no problem. You'll pay more (mine cost c. $20) but it's worth it. No more aggravations.
