Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Wagan EL9794 12V 3 Way Socket with Battery Analysis
Customer Review: Works great, good battery indicator
Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, as a splitter or 3-way socket (whatever you like to call it), it works great! I read other reviews that said "too tight" or "too loose". I pluged in a few things in this spliiter (GPS, radar dectector, converter, cell phone charger). All of them fit in the splitter like gloves.
Secondly, the batter indicator works great too. I guess my car battery is not as high-capacity as the others. If I turn off the engiene and leave GPS, radio, and a few things on, I can see the battery level drop in about 10 to 30 minutes. So it conveniently reminds me what my car battery charge is.
Oh, one last thing, its own power cord is not too short, though not too long either. It's about 4 to 5 feet, I guess.
Overall, a good splitter!
Customer Review: Handy, Helpful12V, 3-Way, 12V Outlet
Summary: 5 Stars
This device fits nicely into one of the storage cubby-holes in the dash/console of my Suburban. With the 3-Way socket expansion, it provided me the additional outlets needed to power up my Garmin, air cleaner, and cell phone charger. It has illuminated outlets and provides a battery strength indicator, which is a nice added feature. In fact, the indicator suggested my battery was very low, and, about 2 weeks after installing this, my battery needed replacement. LOL And NO!, It was not this device that drained my battery, it was just the appropriate time for a new one. :)
It appears to be of solid quality and works well. I would readily buy this same device for another car, if needed.
Customer Review: solves multiple charger problems
Summary: 5 Stars
During our recent cross-country move, I needed to be able to plug in my cell phone, the GPS and the DVD player for the kids (vital to everyone's general well-being during 3 days in the car.) I only had one working cigarette adapter in the car and needed an easy solution. This adapter worked great the entire time. I chose not to screw it into my console as recommended, but rather put some double sided velcro on the bottom and that worked fine. This is a fantastic product despite the fact that they spelled "socket" wrong in the description.Customer Review: Loving it !
Summary: 5 Stars
I travel by car often and sometimes I have my laptop, cellphone charger, rechargeable battery charger etc. And it is very inconvenient to have just one DC outlet so this socket comes very handy. It is not too big so it wont require too much space and even if your space is limited, the cord is long enough to put it on the car floor. Even better, it has a battery meter that lets you know if your battery is loosing power or if everything is still fine.Customer Review: Works as expected
Summary: 5 Stars
Device works great for what it is. I cannot say if the lights actually analyze the battery accurately, considering I haven't tested it (and don't plan to), but that is a side feature. I mostly ordered one for the ability to split my 1 DC plug into 3.
I have had my iRiver AFT 100 FM transmitter, my Pharos GPS, and my Sansa Fuze all plugged into this device, and they are powered and charge as expected. What more could you ask for?
