I've been "reading the book," and it says *not* to plug any electronics into the cigarette lighter.

I was hoping to at least keep my phone charged on longer trips. Not much else.

What say you, O experienced ones?

I use the power port and cig lighter all the time for any plug in device. Of course, only the lighter goes in the lighter port. They have separate fuses. the lighter port has clips that hold the lighter in place for a fixed pass of time. In my use, the plug in devices do not care about these clips. Of course I would not leave anything plugged in over night.

Never had an issue using any port for my phone or radar detectors in all the cars I've had.
Must be a disclaimer for Samsung phones that like to catch fire........
