USB chargers?

[Lykos]

My apologies if this is the wrong forum for this question.



USB chargers that plug in your cigar plugs. I need to invest in the best, most rugged available. I burn through the cheap ones like wild fire.

Apparently the cheap ones don't care for the vibration of an eighteen wheeler.


I'm talking about the little dual port chargers that you plug your charging cord in.


Thanks in advance.

Replaced one of my 12v outlets on the dash with a blue sea USB charger outlet. Haven't looked back, it has been great.

I only understand about half of that!

But FWIW, I also use the Blue Sea dual USB outlets. I've mounted one in my Tacoma in place of one of the 12V powerpoints in the lower console.

I'm getting a sense that Blue Sea is good stuff. I'll check em out.


Thanks!

I threw one of the blue sea ones in place of one of the factory outlets in the Jeep the other day. They definitely make some good stuff. It mounted right up in the factory hole and looks like it belongs. They're meant to handle boat vibration, so truck vibration should be just fine for it.

Did you do this on a JK or other model? I want to add one myself, but curious about the CAN-BUS wiring harness - not sure if I can just add it in series to my existing power outlet.

Can't go wrong with Blue Seas stuff.

Mine was a lower price, and after wiring it up behind the dash, it looks like this....

charges 4 tablets @ 2.4 amps each and it is only $12.99 on Amazon with a 5 amp fuse

It's been working out so well I actually bought a second one to work off the house battery.

Soooooo I hope you read this before you run out and get a blue sea. Sure blue sea is good product but it seems very silly to replace your cig plug with an expensive usb cahrger that is only 1amp output. Im a huge tech person and Have tried a ton of usb chargers. I like small and flush chargers is 2amp output for all devices. So far this Is what I am using.

They are super cheap and are the smallest i can find with 2.4amp output. I offroad all the time and they still work great.

If you need more than 2 you can just get something like this also

I haven't any issues with charging my many electronic gadgets with either of the blue seas oulets I've installed ...
One good thing is I won't be able to lose it.
