Hooking up Cig/aux port?
Going on a 3 day golfing Mancation. 28 of us
The carts there are Electric. I want to hook up and cig/aux port to one of the batteries with alligator clamps so I can attach n remove quickly. Want to run a small clip on fan and maybe charge a phone. Can I just attach it to any battery? I'm hoping I do not need a voltage reducer? Any help greatly appreciated!! I own a Gasser. |

I think this is a bad idea for too many reasons to list. One of them being I can't imagine a course allowing you to do it. |

There is no reason for a reducer. The connection to a 12 Volt battery will supply 12 volts As this is to be temporary it is no problem.

Yep, screwing up someone else's batteries is indeed "no problem", continue.

Re: Hooking up Cig/aux port?
I assume that you guys did notice he was going there for 3 days and that he was talking about charging a phone. Not much draw there! Many gguys (not me) use that practice for more then that on their own carts even if it is dumb!

Re: Hooking up Cig/aux port?
He said a clip on fan and maybe charge a phone. The clip on fans draw from 4-10 amps. Phone chargers with any speed are at least 2-5 amps.
Never owned an electric cart so I have no idea what that would do to the batteries for four hours at a time. Assuming they are average golfers playing at least 18 holes per outing. |
