Mine has quit working so now is the time to make it "better". Any recommendations on a cigarette lighter that works with modern plugs (like a GPS)?

I picked up a USB blank that fit in the hole, and just replaced it with that. Nobody uses it as a cig lighter anymore, and you're always just plugging something USB in anyways.
One of these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002MW6HRO/ref=cm...4vStb1KDNKDJPN1 And one of these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CGRMGZM/ref=cm...5vStb1ZQCD9YN3A I get 5V @ 2A (enough to charge an iPad) and it's wired in directly. |
