Before Christmas there was a thread about Christmas presents which included some cigarette lighter socket voltmeters. Given I'm having battery issues with my Discovery as it's used for short journeys a voltmeter would be a good idea. There's no space for a gauge and no easy way to install a digital panel meter so one of these would be a good idea but I didn't want to lose the power supply for a phone. I found a combined voltmeter and USB socket for ~£3 on eBay, ebay link.  Taken with the ignition off  Ignition on and USB cable connected, to be fair I haven't tried anything connected to the USB socket yet. Mark |

I should have told them I posted and asked for commission....
Mine's been in the Discovery all month with no issues, still haven't used the USB socket though. Just received some of the panel mounting versions as well.

I have one andit's ok but my cigerette light keeps spiting it out, even more so when I use the USB port is used, maybe I need a smoother car

Bought one for my van, had a few charging issues over the winter. Does exactly what it says on the tin so well worth three squids.
We missed a trick here, we should have bought a container full.

Brilliant, I've just ordered one, and three of the panel mounted version for £3.
I have so many uses for these that I didn't know about, thanks for posting.
