What this adapter does

This Pernis adapter converts a 5V USB power source into a 12V cigarette lighter socket output. It accepts power from either a USB-A or USB-C port and delivers up to 12 watts for compatible low-power automotive electronics. The 35cm cable keeps the connection tidy inside the vehicle.

Power limits you must respect

The unit supplies a maximum of 12 watts at 12 volts and 1 amp, so it cannot run high-draw accessories such as heated seats, tire inflators, car fridges or vacuums. A stable 5V input from the host USB port is required for correct operation. Exceeding the rated output will cause the adapter to shut down or perform unreliably.

Check your device before buying

Verify that the accessory you intend to power operates on 12V and draws no more than 12 watts total. The adapter is designed for dash cams, GPS units, LED lights and similar low-power gear only. If your device needs more current or a different voltage, this converter will not be suitable.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the USB-A or USB-C input for my power bank?

The adapter accepts either USB-A or USB-C at 5V, so use whichever port your power source provides.

What does the 12W maximum actually run in my car?

It powers low-draw 12V gear such as dash cams, GPS units or LED lights, but cannot run high-draw items like inflators or heated seats.

How does the 5V to 12V conversion limit what I can connect?

The step-up circuit caps output at 12V and 1A, so only accessories rated for 12V and 12W or less will operate reliably.
