This cigarette lighter to OBD2 female power cable is an essential accessory for powering OBD2-based electronic devices without occupying or wearing out your vehicle's original diagnostic port. It converts the standard 12V/24V cigarette lighter socket (power outlet) into a convenient 16-pin OBD2 interface. It is the perfect solution for users who need a continuous, stable power supply for diagnostic tools, dashcams, or GPS trackers but prefer not to hardwire them into the OBD port directly.
