radar detector, inverter, standard cigarette lighter, and/or a flashlight.
I alternate between all four of those things, and the only reason i have the cigarette lighter, is cause it came with the truck..

I alternate between Radar detector, GPS, Cell phone charger, and sometimes the cigarette lighter. I just installed some toggle switches in the blank panel above my new stereo, and will use to tap into 12V source, and hard wire the radar and GPS adapter to them, freeing up at least one of the sockets.
