Works like a charm!
I tried this so I could use my iPhone's FM transmitter/holder and my GPS at the same time powered to the car's socket. I had tried two other products, and in each case, the iPhone and it's holder were too heavy to hold the item securely. But this adapter is incredibly sturdy and works beautifully. I don't know if it will survive in the long term, but since the male plug...
Error In Description...
While this Twin Car 12V socket adapter works OK, there is NO fuse protection (I took it apart and there is NO fuse in it). Also, there is a warning label on the adapter that says "No Cigarette Lighting, Max of 2.5 amps for using both devices".

I don't know if it will survive in the long term, but since the male plug is not movable at all, it should last as long as it needs to. No problems with powering up the devices, connection is very solid. I work on the road, am in my car constantly, and so this is the perfect companion to make my ride comfortable. The adapter is very compact, so it fits perfectly, and I suspect it would fit most cars with no problem. I recommend this item highly to anyone who needs to simultaneously plug in 2 devices to their car's electrical socket.

I've used this for a couple of weeks now so I could power my GPS at the same time I was listening to my satellite radio. For the most part, this works fine. The one problem that I've had a few times is that one of the 2 items plugged in may not be drawing power. Sometimes the connection seems loose, although I've never had a problem with the adapter coming loose from the socket itself. While it's not perfect, it gets the job done for me.

What a great idea. But this particular design was not capable of staying in the charging socket. It kept backing out on its own. The company very promptly sent me a replacement, but the replacement did the same. I drive a Subaru Forester, and I think it's socket would be the same as other manufacturer's, but nonetheless, I could not keep it in the socket. Gave up and bought another type.
