Does the ciggie lighter in a cinq have somethng against being used for electrical stuff.

i tried plugging some little lights into it and it just wouldnt take it!

is this a common problem?

The unit isn't deep enough as its meant for a cig lighter and a lot of things with cig lighter ends on are a little longer an so won't go in

alright then cheers!

i have a power converter plugged into mine to give me a mains plug socket in the car, good old maplins.
