Usb charger to fit rocker switch slot

I've been looking into something similar. Keep in mind that most of the USB chargers ive seen on ebay and at Jaycar have a 1.0A and a 2.1A slot (or they might advertise 3.1A shared across two slots). Such a config wont charge 2 ipads. Ipads need a 2.1A slot. Even if you want a faster charge on your mobile, chose the 2.1A slot.

So if you're thinking of throwing a couple of these USB sockets in the back seat for the kids, make sure you get 2x 2.1A... otherwise.. "are we there yet?" ... "are we there yet?" :1087:

Im looking for something like this in a dashmount config - http://www.jaycar.com.au/Power-Produ...arger/p/MP3666 May be able to pull the guts out of it and refit it to one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Car-2-1A-Dua...3D131492692357

I didnt, was already done by the previous owner lol

can you just run wire from your aux battery to the location and wire up?

i pulled my cigi lighter out the front and tried to wire it up but the wires in place did not want to play ball for some reason!

Thats all I did , just tapped into the power cable going to the rear power outlet.
Don't forget to fuse it at the battery end, I used these

i got a baintech one with dual usb plugs..

so run some regular cable and fuse direct from aux battery.. what size cable and fuse you think?

at least 6mm for any power wires

I find it easier to run a thick cable to a fuse block that is fused at the battery.
I'm a big fan of blue sea fuse blocks like this one

Find a spot for it under the dash, passenger kick panel, glove box etc and then you can run as many fused accessories as the fuse block has spots

thanks guys.. will look into the fuse box also as that means i just run lines from the box which is nice a clean coz i aint got a clue whats going on behind the dash with the cabling and that way i know whats what!
