Victron 12V Cigarette Lighter Plug with 16A Fuse

The Victron Energy 12V Cigarette Lighter Plug with 16A Fuse is a genuine Victron accessory designed for use with Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 chargers equipped with a DC connector. It provides a convenient plug-and-play solution for charging a vehicle battery through a standard 12V cigarette lighter or accessory socket — eliminating the need to access battery terminals directly and making it ideal for cars, camper-vans, motorhomes, boats, and other mobile applications where quick and easy charger connection is a priority.

The plug connects directly to the DC output connector of a compatible Blue Smart IP65 or Blue Power IP65 charger, allowing the charger to be powered from the vehicle's AC mains supply while delivering its full multi-stage adaptive charge to the vehicle battery via the cigarette lighter socket. This makes it particularly practical for maintaining or charging batteries in vehicles parked in garages or on driveways without requiring removal of trim panels or access to battery terminals in confined engine bays.

An integrated 16A fuse provides overcurrent protection in the charging circuit, safeguarding the cigarette lighter socket and wiring from excessive current draw during the charging process. The fuse rating is matched to the maximum current capacity of the standard automotive 12V accessory socket, ensuring safe operation within the electrical limits of the vehicle's auxiliary power system.

Compatible with the full range of Victron Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 chargers that feature the DC connector output, the 12V Cigarette Lighter Plug is a compact, portable accessory that can be easily stored in a vehicle or charger bag when not in use. It requires no tools, no wiring, and no modification to the vehicle — simply connect the plug to the charger's DC output connector and insert it into the cigarette lighter socket to begin charging.

Features

Plug-and-Play Charging via Cigarette Lighter Socket

Provides instant, tool-free connection between a compatible Victron Blue Smart IP65 or Blue Power IP65 charger and a vehicle's standard 12V cigarette lighter or accessory socket — enabling convenient battery charging without the need to access battery terminals directly or disturb vehicle trim or panels.

Integrated 16A Fuse Protection

A built-in 16A fuse protects the cigarette lighter socket, vehicle wiring, and the charging circuit from overcurrent conditions, ensuring safe operation within the current capacity of the vehicle's standard 12V accessory socket during the full duration of the charging cycle.

Compatible with Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 Chargers

Designed specifically for use with Victron Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 chargers equipped with a DC connector output, the plug connects directly to the charger's DC output without adapters, allowing the charger's full multi-stage adaptive charge algorithm to be delivered via the vehicle's accessory socket.

Compact and Portable

The plug's compact form factor makes it easy to store in a glove box, charger bag, or toolbox when not in use. Its lightweight construction and simple plug-and-play design make it an ideal travelling companion for vehicle owners who maintain batteries across multiple vehicles or locations using a single Blue Smart IP65 charger.

No Tools or Wiring Required

Requires no installation, wiring modifications, or tools of any kind — simply plug the accessory into the charger's DC output connector and insert into the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket. This makes it particularly useful in situations where battery terminal access is impractical, such as sealed bonnets, underseat battery locations, or vehicles with battery management systems sensitive to terminal disconnection.
