Car cigarette lighter splitter

The Cable Matters CAR-CL-1G2M-18CM adapter converts one 12V or 24V vehicle outlet into two DC sockets. It uses 7 inches of UL-listed 18 AWG pure copper wire with a double PVC jacket. An integrated 15A fuse and red LED indicator protect against overcurrent. The unit is rated for 10A continuous draw and up to 150W maximum power.

15A fuse and 10A rating

The built-in 15A (6x30mm) fuse is the single specification that determines safe loading. The splitter supports a continuous operating current of 10A across both sockets combined. Exceeding this limit will blow the fuse and cut power to connected devices. Total connected equipment must stay within the 150W ceiling at the supplied voltage.

Drivers needing two low-power ports

This suits motorists who want to run a phone charger and a dash cam, or a tire inflator and a GPS, from a single lighter socket. It is not for buyers who want more than two outlets or who need to power devices that together draw above 10A continuous. High-draw appliances such as large inverters or heated blankets should look at something else.

Questions about this item

What does the 150W maximum power rating mean when I plug two devices into the splitter?

The 150W limit is the combined ceiling for both sockets at 12–24V DC; drawing more can blow the 15A fuse.

How does the 12–24V DC operating range affect what I can safely connect?

It accepts standard vehicle power and caps total current at 10A, so any 12V or 24V accessory must stay within that combined draw.

What physical space and wiring does the 7-inch 18 AWG lead need to install cleanly?

The 7-inch heavy-duty copper cord with SPT-1 jacket and bakelite plugs fits tight console gaps and withstands 4000+ bend cycles.
