I need to plug my Cell Phone charger into something, and apparently the only true Power Outlet is on the back of the center console.

 

I plug my Cell into my cigarette lighter all the time... Thats what car adapters are for...

 

Perfectly fine. The only thing that makes that socket a cigarette lighter is the "plug" that you press in, otherwise it's just a power socket. The plug is pretty much just a resistor, it gets hot as the electricity from the socket tries to pass through.

 

Thanks for the replies. I asked because the Owner's Manual specifically warns against using the cigarette lighter outlet as a power oulet, and I didn't want to kill my cell charger.

 

you can always get like a 600 watt power inverter and have it hardwired to the car...
