USB charger in cigarette lighter that doesnt come loose all the time

[liorwohl]

In any Fiat and with any USB charger, any light thouch and the connection is lost, it never sits firmly. I now have 1996 panda and the 12v socket is right near the radio, steering wheel, ignition key - and it disconect all the time because of accidental touches. In my other car (Lancia Ypsilon 2007) its the same and it was the same with any other Fiat I ever had.
Anyone found a charger that fit tight?? something small and simple.

You could try "low profile car charger" on amazon, low profile means, it doesn't protrude, so it's less likely to come lose, because there's less of a lever.

Of course its low profile, anything sold in the last few years is quite small anyway. Still it moves around a lot.

Its trial an error with buying lots of them. This is a pain for sure.

You could seek out a USB power outlet that can be permanently wired. My brother fitted one from eBay it seemed to work well and looked neat. finding an accessible mounting place can be awkward in any small car though.
