sundodger Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 How do you mean doesn't have the power too?? the USB connection will go to the cigarette lighter this is a iphone spec three way connection used it in my Astra cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Will work fine although you cant wire the usb directly to the cigar lighter as the lighter is 12v and the usb will need a 5v feed to charge the iphone. You could plug it into an adapter however. I used a cheapie cigar usb socket to convert 12v to 5v which i butchered and hid behind the dash.

WhackyWill Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 That should work fine SunDodger, as long as you reduce down the voltage from 12v to 5v to charge your iPhone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
