Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Marine Grade Locking Cigarette Lighter Plug 12 VDC
Customer Review: Locking? What locking?
Summary: 1 Stars
Product features, and imprinting on the device itself, stated that it has a twist-lock feature. One would imagine that meant there was a way that after it was inserted into the power port, that you could twist something, causing it to lock securely in place.
This power port adapter (they used to call them cigarette lighter plugs) is just like any other. There is NOTHING about this unit that makes it any more secure than any other. There is nothing to twist, no locking mechanism of any type. It's simply the same spring tension found on all power port adapters.
Nor is it marine grade. In order for it to be 'marine grade' it would have to be made of corrosion resistant materials and be at least water resistant. Not so with this unit. It's made of the same plastics and inexpensive metals as any other. Get it wet, it will rust. Submerse it, it will fill with water, instantly and fail.
So, this is a flagrant case of product misrepresntation. I would not buy it again. In fact, if I had the power, I'd make the company stop selling it, buy back what they had already sold, and sue them for false advertising.
Description of Marine Grade Locking Cigarette Lighter Plug 12 VDC
The locking plugs are designed to work with an interlocking receptacle. They are manufactured from corrosion resistant marine grade materials. An interconnecting system securely locks the plugs into the receptacle resulting in a positive and moisture proof connection.Digital Cameras & Photo Categories
