This socket type is extensively used throughout Europe for 12 volt portable accessories. It main advantages are that it is smaller than a normal 12 volt lighter style socket but has the same power rating. The socket with matching plug (sold at our other listing), snap together to provide an anti-vibration proof connection. A standard 12 volt lighter socket / plug connection uses a friction fit that can vibrate out of connection in mobile applications. This socket solves that problem with the snap together connection.
This listing is for one (1) weatherproof socket with a tight fitting open vinyl cap and mounting plate with screws. The socket has brass and beryllium copper contacts with standard 0.250 spade type terminals in a heavy nylon body. The socket mounts in a “1-1/8″ hole. The length of the socket is 1.5″ from the inside flange face to the tip of the male terminals. With the mounting plate and screws the socket can be mounted against a panel of unlimited thickness. The socket is rated for 15 amps at 12 volts DC. The socket weight is 0.9 oz
The plug is not included in this listing just the socket shown. See our other listings for a BMW style plug.
