Does it have cigarette lighter socket? That is can I plug in a 12V accessory to it?



I'm going to keep it in the trunk. And yes it comes with a cigarette lighter 2.1 amp usb port that you can use today keep its plugged in or just charge it. You can also use it for charging other usb devices.

Also here is the voltage comparison with unit powering in manual over ride vs just unit on. Unit does output about 0.447v when powered on at the clamps.

I think you misunderstood; I want to able to plug my 12V spotlight in to Noco; so Noco needs to have 12V receptacle socket. Do they provide an adapter or something like that?

I will test for that this possibly tonight or this weekend and report back.

Seriously, do you really want to try shorting it? I probably will not but you might have more guts than I do!



I still won't short it but I did buy this and will open it up.

From one review I saw the capacity is supposed to be approximately 6850 mah, but I am doubting that they are going to leave any markings on the battery pack to identify it. Either way we'll get to see what's going on inside!

I did and it does. I was reading through the user guide, and it recommends not doing this due to 'FCC regulations'
Not sure what regulation Im breaking by using it in this configuration. But, Ill probably keep doing it. not all the time of course, but whenever it needs to be topped up.

I have to mention too, that the battery clamps @#%$@#& impress me. They are heavier than the battery pack!
