Can I run my satnav and dash cam at the same time from my 12V cigarette lighter socket?

I've just been given a new Gamin dash cam. Can I run this and my Garmin satnav from the 12V cigarette lighter socket?

Answered by John Slavin

Yes. If they have typical Micro-USB connectors then you can get a 12V adapter with two USB ports on it - see the review below. If not you can get an adaptor that makes one 12V socket into two. But either way, you can run both devices at once.
