Carpoint CPT0523414 Lighter Plug, 12 V

No instructions with this so here are mine....Unscrew the silver end piece and pull off the remaining metal ring. The fuse, connector and tensioning spring will come out. Then use long nose pliers inserted in the other end to prise apart (take care not to damage the rubber) but have a helper to cup their hands around, ready to catch the two halves and remaining side connectors/springs, as they will fly across the room otherwise! After this prepare your + and - wires to different lengths as in the photo and solder. Don't forget to slide the spring over the wire so it is retained on the + connector. As long as you have enough insulation on the conducting flex's as shown you should be good to go. Be careful not to cross-thread the end piece on the way back in. Good value for £1.99 delivered I thought.

Flimsy rubbish! Says 10 amp and only comes with 8amp. Connections are rubbish with nothing to actually enable you to fix the positive wire to the Flimsy piece of metal the fuse sits on. Got really hot the first time I used it and melted the inside of the plug. I do not recommend, you may aswel throw the money in the bin. AVOID.

The other reviews are spot on..... You have to be proficient soldering to make the connections, it's very tricky to open and even more fiddly to put back together....you need the patience and dexterity of a Swiss watch maker....seriously if you want a quick fix this is not the product for you! That said once I overcame the challenges the end result was good. The plug quality is good. I used it on a small the compressor andi worked fine.

Wirks well but hard to open. No instructions

I needed to replace the plug on my compressor as it broke, initially I struggled to open it, as it was not very clear, so I've done this tutorial to help, pictures attached are following this detail:-To take this apart, do the following in reverse order.Unlike many plugs, this ones wires are the same fixing length as each other (my one did at least), I didn’t spot this until I was putting it together, and I wasn’t going to mess about for the sake of a small excess of cable that could sit inside if you ask it nicely lol, the Side A is marked on purpose, it is the half with the deepest slot (the red circle) which helps with holding the Spring, as the soldered wire goes on the bottom end, and the spring sitting against the other side of it.Points to help, if you don’t do 1 and 2 in the order shown, you will not get them on and will have to start over, and when you undo the screw thread place it face side down on the side, so the threaded part is in the air, then place the Tip into it rounded end first, this way at the end it should fall into the hole as you pick it up saving you a juggling act. • Feed cable through 1 (the rubber end) first. • Next Feed 2 (the Spring) down the Live Wire, then Solder the wire to the bottom of the Leg. • Solder side bar to the Neutral Wire, Keep the solder away from the outer edge or it will stop the 2 halves from closing. • Now start to put the bits back together using Side A to locate the parts, place the thick part of the rubber sleeve into 1.2 (1.1 will sit on the other half as you close it up). • Insert 3 (the side bar) into the outer edge, if you can’t get it to sit in properly, you’ve probably got too much solder on the outer side\edge, reduce this excess if needed until you can insert it fully. • Slide 2 (the Spring) up to the furthest end from the wire and insert the bottom part of the bar into the slot shown by the red circle, you will need to hold the spring up to do this, once the bar is in the slot you can gently release the Spring that will open up to the top part of the case. • Now place the other half of the case on top of Side A, you may have to take a couple of try’s to get it right, once together, do Not let go, or you will need to repeat this step again if it comes apart. • Next take the Collar, and place it over the Neck, it just sits on. • Insert the Fuse in through the Collar, it won’t go in fully as the Spring will resist this until you take the last step. • Still holding the plug together, with the Tip Inserted into 4 (the screw fixing), place this with the Fuse going into it, and screw it into place, don’t use too much force it’s only plastic, you will feel initial resistance from the Spring again, but as you screw it home it all falls into place.Job done, all going well you can plug it in and use it, the only downside with this is the rubber insert that is to help stop the cable breaking by offering resistance to the flexibility of the wire is pretty weak, but at the price you can’t expect too much, so just an observation.

Worked perfectly

I purchased three of these plugs. Two of them wouldn't open for wiring.The third I had to prize open much against my instinct. When it did come apart, there were no useable terminals with which to wire it up and the spring-loaded centre terminal just flopped about and could not be held against its spring loading. For the other pole, there was no ready way to make a connection.I had wanted this plug to repair my 12 volt electric pump and it is obvious that a reliable connection is vital because the pump would be safeguard against breakdowns. I was absolutely furious and what put the lid on it was that the items came with no instructions whatsoever. This habit of passing off poor quality rubbish on Amazon has got to stop. When you think of a van making an urgent journey to deliver these as a "next day Prime" provision, it makes a mockery of the energy crisis.Looking through Amazon's selection of such 12v plugs, it is impossible to find one with proper construction, ie screwed together and using screw terminals.

Very good quality but if you don’t have a soldering iron this isn’t for you, a bit fiddly to wire but worth it

Kwaliteit iets minder , maar hij zit op een vaste plek en hoeft nooit verwijdert te worden.

Um den Stecker as Stecker nutzen zu können, mussman das Kabel anlöten. Dazu muss man den Stecker öffnen. Dieser hält aber nicht mit einer Schraube zusammen, sondern ist zusammengeklemmt. Wenn man ihn aufgemacht hat, kommt einem erst alle alle Innereien entgegen (Sicherung, Federn außen, Feder mit Stift innen usw.) Wenn man den Stecker wiederzusammenfügen will, geht das nicht. Man kann es nicht mehr zu klemmen, die Innereinen verschieben sich dauernd. Sollte man noch Kabel eingelötet haben, hat man die absolute Karte. Man bekommt den Stecker beim besten Willen nicht mehr zusammen. Es ist ein Fall für die Mülltonne, wo er bei mir auch landete.
