    Marsauto LEDs in license tag lights Marsauto LEDs in map lights Yorkim Red LEDs in High mount brake light Zevo LED in dome light (may change that, it is not too bright)
    So, both my emergency vehicle lightbars (STL Raptor visor bar, STL Striker-8 Traffic advisor) run off 12v plugs (acc plugs) but my mom's fiancee got me a travel mug that plugs into the 12v acc plug. I was wondering if any of you could suggest a good splitter so I can use it even while they are plugged in. Phone charge capability would be nice too.

    Please lemme know your opinions or if there is already a thread for them point me to it. (Don't feel like seaching though thread upon thread that may not even be related)

    Thanks

    I think you’re trying to power too many things off the power outlets.

    And how many amps does the heated coffee mug draw? It takes a lot of current to heat liquid.
