Having a nightmare trying to find a hella socket to normal ciga socket adaptor that will drop the voltage from 24to12v as well. Aqquired a roadtek one off ebay but that was broken before I even tried it! Any advice guys??
Cheers

other retailers are available of course . And if you dont like the plug on the 24 volt end swap it for a hella plug . I’m sure the retailer on the link would do this for you for the price of a pint if you were in the shop itself .

If you take the red end off the plug in the link it will fit straight into a Hella socket, the red end is an adapter to use it in a standard cigarette lighter socket

That one you’ve linked is a dual plug fits cigi socket or take red collar off fits hella

yes - I know its a dual fit plug . My experience is that dual fit plugs don’t fit that well leading to heat and melted wires . The OP wants a reducer for a Hella plug - thats why I sugested taking the dual fit off and replacing it with a dedicated hella plug .
What truck are you going to use it in ?

Just get a short lead with a hella plug on one end and a cig lighter socket on the other to plug a dropper into, then you’re also covered if cab hopping.

(above post) Voltage wants dropping as well though. Loads of places do voltage droppers just google it.
By combinig the last two pists I succeeded. Was to obsessed with the hella to cig part. Thanks guys, working a charm

Thats why I said “plug a dropper in”.
I’m always dropping sockets. Bloody nuisance when you’re old and stiff cos they always end up somewhere bleedin’ hard to get at. Or did I misunderstand the title.
Sorted it, nit sure why I didnt think of just getting a cig to cig dropper but think I was just stuck on the ‘I want it off the hella socket thought’
