    A thing or two...
    It has a cigarette plug that stepped the voltage down from 12V to 5V? If so, then you can't just cut off the cigarette plug and hardwire it to 12V. You have to feed it 5V. Hopefully, it has some circuit protection in it because you may have fried it hooking it straight to 12V.
