## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this plug into the ctek and then into my 12v outlet in my trunk?  Does the 12v connect to my battery?**
A: Our 56-870 comfort indicator cig plug is compatible with many CTEK chargers and can be used to charge your battery through your vehicles power socket.  Your charger still requires AC power to function when using this accessory.

**Q: What is it - what does it do ???**
A: Like a battery charger but it operated over long periods of time such as when you go on a longer vacation like >2 wks. Modern cars kill their batteries just sitting in the garage. This gizmo will keep it healthy without over charging. Higher tech than a charger.  Works beautifully on my Porsche 911.

**Q: Does it work with jeep gladiator ?**
A: Works with a CTek charger and will work with any battery regardless of make.

**Q: Is it ok to leave plug in when car is running  ?**
A: Yes, it is okay to leave this part (56-870) plugged in. Doing so will give you and indication of the charge currently on your battery.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by B***E on 4 November 2021*

Works well with my charger. Easy to connect to the battery compared with a direct connection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by M***D on 7 December 2025*

My broken Porsche branded smart charger came with an attached cig plug, but this plug is better as it comes with indicator lights.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant Little Device - Just Not Cheap
*by H***R on 18 June 2020*

This product provides an extremely simple but accurate way to monitor charge status of a car battery on a rarely used vehicle without even having to "pop the bonnet" to connect a multi meter. If the battery does need charging, it so very simple to use the "comfort connect" connection from a C Tek charger to connect directly to the device leaving the C Tek charge status lights visible through a window on a seat inside a locked vehicle - genius! There have, sadly, been some negative and ignorant reviews of this product which may needlessly discourage purchase of an otherwise excellent product. Firstly, the need to connect to a permanently live cigarette lighter socket should be obvious - it's not a surprise! Fortunately, the 2 x Skodas within my extended family both have such permanently live sockets and find that this device is so simple to use. Check before buying.! But - even if your car does not have a permanently live socket on dash or centre console - don't give up - check to see if there is a permanently live socket in the boot. Secondly, there are some negative reviews criticizing the voltage value of the Amber/Green threshold. Without wanting to start an online spat, I regard the 12.65V threshold as wholly appropriate for a "fully charged" vs "charge soon" boundary. If your car battery is not above 12.65V it is at least 20-30% discharged and some electric wizardry from a C Tek charger would be beneficial to extend battery life even if not immediately essential to starting the engine. Only downside, £15 is not cheap for what it is, but it could save you hundreds of pounds. Quality has a price.
