12V Plug with 5A Fuse and LED Indicator

This 12V accessory plug combines functionality and safety in a compact design. It’s made of durable black plastic and fits standard round 12V sockets found in cars and boats. Key features:

• Built-in 5A fuse: Easily accessible (usually by unscrewing the tip of the plug), this fuse safeguards your connected equipment and the vessel’s electrical system from overload. If the device draws more than 5 amps or a short occurs, the fuse will blow – preventing damage to wiring. It can be replaced with an identical fuse when necessary.
• LED indicator: A small red/blue LED on the plug’s body illuminates when the plug is properly inserted and receiving power from the socket. This helps confirm at a glance that power is present, and it’s useful for finding the plug at night or in a dark cabin.
• Locking mechanism: This model features spring-loaded side contact pins/ridges that expand inside the socket to lock the plug in place. This ensures a steady electrical connection even under engine vibration or boat movement. The plug won’t wiggle loose in choppy seas or on rough roads.
• Easy to use: Wire the plug to your device’s cable (it has two internal screw terminals for positive and negative, or it may come pre-wired with a pigtail). Then simply insert it fully into a 12V socket. The LED will light up, indicating your device is powered. This plug pairs perfectly with standard 12V female sockets (e.g., code 01579 – a flush-mount socket), forming a reliable connection.

Applications: Suitable for any 12V devices up to 5A: portable cooler boxes, air pumps for inflatables, chargers for phones/tablets (with appropriate adapter), GPS or fishfinder units, action cameras, fans, and more. It’s an excellent accessory for your boat, allowing quick hookup of additional gear without complex wiring.

With its compact form and built-in protections, this 12V plug provides peace of mind and convenience when powering gadgets on board.
