CTEK Accessory - Comfort Connect Cig Plug

CTEK Comfort Connect Cig Plug (Part No. 56-263) lets you charge your battery directly through your car’s cigarette lighter outlet, so you can top up or maintain power without pulling the charger into the cabin. Designed for real-world convenience, this plug works with CTEK’s full line of 12V battery chargers, including UC 800, MULTI US 3300, MULTI US 7002, US 0.8, MXS 5.0, CT5 TIME TO GO, LITHIUM US, CT5 POWERSPORT, and MUS 4.3, delivering a smooth, secure charging connection right from the vehicle. What makes this Cig-Plug stand out - In-vehicle charging, on your terms: Plug into the car’s live cigarette lighter outlet and charge while you’re parked, saving time and avoiding extra cords or power sources. - Broad compatibility with CTEK chargers: Specifically designed to pair with a wide range of CTEK 12V chargers, so you can standardize on one charging ecosystem. - Flexible outlet fit: Accepts both 12mm and 21mm cigarette outlet sockets, giving you versatility across different vehicle makes and models. - Safe, reliable connection: Maze-like strain relief protects the lead and connector from flexing and wear, reducing the risk of damage during routine inserts and removals. - Quick-connect convenience: Uses CTEK quick connectors designed for 12V chargers up to 7A, delivering a secure, straightforward setup. - Clear compatibility guidance: Note that CONNECT and INDICATOR accessories do not fit older CTEK models with white, plastic connectors—use the CONNECT PLUG ADAPTER for those configurations. Important charging note - For charging to occur, the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket must be live when the ignition is in the OFF position. If the socket isn’t powered in OFF, charging through this Cig-Plug won’t commence. Who benefits most - Drivers who routinely park with the engine off but want to maintain battery health, especially during long trips, seasonal storage, or in vehicles where electrical drain is a concern. - Owners who prefer a tidy, vehicle-based charging setup without carrying external power sources or adapters. How to use (quick guide) 1) Plug the Comfort Connect Cig-Plug into a live cigarette lighter outlet. 2) Connect the plug’s 12V charger lead to your CTEK charger via the appropriate quick connector (up to 7A). 3) Attach the charger to the battery as you normally would with your CTEK unit, and begin charging. 4) When finished, disconnect in reverse order, noting the socket needs to stay live only when the ignition is off for charging to work. This Cig-Plug is a practical, purpose-built accessory for anyone who wants streamlined, reliable battery maintenance directly from the car, using the trusted CTEK Comfort Connect system.
