12V Widget Heaven! And a great resource for problem solving, import conversion, and for year round collectors of stocking fillers for blokes!

Pro Car: Procar are the world's leading manufacturer of 12v & 24v DIN & Lighter style plugs, sockets, adaptors and associated products. Their high quality and universal application makes them ideal for vehicle and equipment manufacturers, and naturally enough for their customers too! Pro Car products are found in cars, motorhomes, caravans, trucks and boats. You'll also see them pre-fitted to many accessories like cooler boxes and fridges. For completeness we also include a few non-Procar items at the bottom of the page.

Cigarette Lighter Sockets v DIN sockets? Because there is no universally agreed specification for vehicle Lighter sockets and because these sockets were never designed to be used for such an array of accessories as they now are, the DIN Standard socket and corresponding plug were designed. And now - so that accessories can be used in either type of socket, Pro Car offer their well known red-topped plug which can be used in either kind of socket. They also make many adapters to convert from one to the other.

Please note that the typical UK fitment is Lighter Socket (LS) and not the DIN Standard socket.

General info: The DIN plug is the preferred type for powering accessories and is fitted to most European motorhomes. The Lighter socket type is however still common in the UK. To make life easier we offer several adaptors to convert from one to the other. We've tried to be specific about types here but you might find references to 'standard' = DIN and to L.S. = Lighter Socket or LT = Lighter Type. Universal fits either, just twist off the red cap to convert from LS to DIN and twist back on again to convert back to LS - easy! The other standard to refer to is the maximum allowed current in Amps, these days that is normally 8A (about 100W). It is also possible to use up to 16A (nearly 200W) but only if using one of the Heavy Duty items on offer and also only if your vehicle fuse and wiring support it. Procar extension leads are generally about 4m for the flat type or 60-300 cm approx for coiled.

24v to 12v Convertors: These extremely useful converters plug into 24v Lighter or DIN sockets and provide twin 12v Lighter socket outputs. We can supply a range of budget and of high tech voltage converters with outputs from 4A to 30A and prices from £9.95 to £195! The two budget versions listed below are perfect for running 'ordinary' 12v appliances like phone chargers, laptops etc, in a truck for example, just choose between 4A and 8A total output. For the switched mode 'Alfatronix' please email for a quote.

Ireland: Regrettably we cannot offer our standard postal service to Ireland on these products. Due to double handling in the UK we have to make additional postage charges, typically another £3, and occasionally delivery times will be quite extended too. You can add that extra postage to your shopping basket below, use the item IRLPost found at the top of the product list. (Small packets to NI postcodes are unaffected).

Express/Overnight is not generally available on ProCar, if desperate you can ask, we'll help IF we can.

Min Order: Due to the relatively high cost of handling small orders we must ask for a minimum order value of £5.00 on items on the page please. This excludes pp which will be added at the 'basket' screen.
