Does anyone have an issue with they're cigarette lighter outlet going out and turning back on depending on what USB port accessory ( phone charger) they use ? I wasn't sure if it was the fuse or maybe too high of a wattage or something... Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Fine, it’s a cheap 12v USB adapter. There are quality adaptors available that will provide good USB power from a recptacle from 32v down to 10v reliable and are only $1-$3 more than the cheap gastation adaptors. Next time it happens ( loss of USB power), insert your original cigarette lighter back in and see if it works…that or get a volt meter designed for the receptacle and get an accurate reading.
