    The wires are way too small. Good luck! If you're trying to run this into your cabin from your battery, they're like 2 to 5 inches

  • Plug for 12V power inside car is poorly designed!

    I was "forced" to buy this model simply because it was the only option available at the store near me. I can confirm that the plug for the cigarette lighter doesn't work right. Unsure if it's because the spring is too tough, so it doesn't stay plugged in, or if the metallic wings that connect with the barrel of the lighter are too short. Putting pressure on the plug to keep it plugged is a temporary workaround. I'm going to buy a separate plug and replacing the one that was supplied. Can't believe a company didn't test this! Should never have been made this poorly!

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
