I keep an eye on our readers’ Amazon carts, looking for great deals and cool new products; this extension cord caught my attention immediately.
Twelve feet long, this heavy-duty cable plugs into your vehicle’s 12-volt cigarette lighter. It’s a 12-foot long extension cord that will work with any of your 12-volt devices rated to 180 watts or 15 amps. Made by P.I. Auto Shop, the cable is made of copper wire coated with a thermoplastic, over-molded to the connectors for added strength at weak points.
It’s great for camping or working on your car when you’re not near an outlet, a reality on most city streets. You can use it to charge your smartphone, for car tire inflators, electric coolers, heated blankets, and more. There’s also a 12-volt DC to 110-volt AC converter available by the same brand.
