ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a module-type multi-function power outlet adapter for use of add-on electrical accessories in an automotive vehicle having a cigarette lighter socket. This device embodies a plurality of separate detachable modules which may be attached to a basic module insertable into the lighter socket and constructed to receive the additional modules, so to provide multiple electrical outputs. Such a module-type arrangement allows the adapter to fit the mounting space of cigarette light socket in various vehicles, boats, campers, and the like. A simple positioning pin structure ensures correct power leads connection and secures the combination between modules. The resulting solid structure allows easy reception for plug-in accessory equipment. In addition, this device acts as a power system protector by monitoring the voltage level and controlling the power use of those accessories no matter whether the engine is running or stopped. Furthermore, this device is also a power system tester by providing information on the working condition of battery, generator, and regulator in an automotive vehicle and the like.
