There's a plethora of such plug ins on Ebay/ Amazon, myriads of options. Up to 4 x USB plug ins and also a centre voltage display, + socket doublers/triples.

nicholsong the one marked 2.4A is probably a USB Type A socket, which used to be the generic USB supply socket. 2.4A will give you up to 12 watts - Power (Watts)=Volts x Amps.prb Thanks. We learn every day, maybe because we have no USB sockets in our MH.
On the dash all we have is 12v cigarette lighter sockets.
Can one buy an adapter which plugs into the 12v and has output of 5v.?
Sorry for basic questions, but I have never had to deal with anything other than 12v..
EDIT Coincidently we have just bought an adapter which plugs into 12v cigarette socket and has 2x12v socket outlets.
It also has 3x other sockets - two USB style, one marked 2.4A( which by my calculation at 12v input = 5v output) so that solves my original question.
The other two sockets are a USB style marked QC3.0 and a smaller socket marked Type-C. What are those for please?
Many thanks
Geoff

Type C is becoming the norm, as a Type C cable can have the same connector at both ends and can supply a (slightly) higher current. Most modern mobile telephones have a Type C power connection.
Type C QC connector can provide an "intelligent" power supply to power the like of some laptops. Personally I wouldn't trust the QC from a cheap Chinese import for anything other than a tablet or phone

I would think that it only uses the OBD connection for 12v power and perhaps the water temperature function. The speed will be derived from its GPS receiver.Thanks for all the replies. Most were connected to OBD, whereas in the title I had specified GPS, which is what most are now on offer on internet.
My connection is USB at 5v and only GPS.I would think that it only uses the OBD connection for 12v power and perhaps the water temperature function. The speed will be derived from its GPS receiver.
I also suspect that the manual that was posted downloaded to your device automatically and you will find in a download folder. That is what it did for me anyway.
Mine wasn’t. It got the speed from the OBD. Advantage was it worked in tunnels, and showed other info but as mentioned above stopped my cruise control working.I would think that it only uses the OBD connection for 12v power and perhaps the water temperature function.

The one I bought can be adjusted. I have it set to read a couple of mph over to ensure I'm on the right side of the law.

It will be interesting as to how it compares against any other gps toy that you have.I am happy to report that the HUD GPS I chose has been installed and is working, thanks to the help I got on this thread.
It will save a lot of squinting or having to ask Basia to read the speed off the SatNav on the phone.

It's set to over-read by about 4%. There's no specific alarm, merely the display.Over what speed limit?
In France the speed limits change so frequently that one would be forever stopping to change the warning.
