Adding a cigarette power outlet?

[Clayton Harper]

the one on lonestaraviation is just so much more expensive than it has to be.

You do understand you are paying for paperwork. It is not unlike an STC. Sure you might be able to get an STC to change the engine in your airplane for example, but that process many times cost more than the STC. Like they say in the movie business, "You can make a movie cheap, or you can make a movie fast, but not both.

from this thread a year ago.. links are still good

I get a plug at O'Reilly Auto parts that is identical to what Piper and Cessna used. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...0225&ppt=C0335 Comes with a nice rubber cap to cover the plug when not in use.

SteinAir has a 2.1 amp USB:

Do you smoke? If not why not just use one of the USB chargers from lonestar or ei? My lighter is coming out, I just talked to Clyde today.

I used a fuse connected to the circuit breaker bus.

Why use both a fuse and a CB?

[Steve Pierce]

On the unprotected side of the bus. I just added a USB plug to my own as installed a circuit breaker cause I had room and it was easy.

Since I have a generator, I use a battery minder to top off the battery after short flights or night flights. My landing and taxi lights drain the battery at approach and taxi RPM. I have a fused harness directly on the battery for quick batt charger connect.
What do you think of charging the iPad with this device?

See the fused harness below in the link "frequently bought together".
