Power Socket Adapters Available - LotusTalk

RoadDad · 11-25-2008, 05:41 PM

For those of us who have some trouble with the larger power socket in the Lotus holding the smaller power cord plugs in the US, there are adapters available. However, they are apparently very elusive. I have been looking for one for a long time without success. Until today

. Ah, the simple pleasures in life. $2.50.

Disclaimer: I haven't gotten it yet, don't know if it will fit correctly or hold your power cord plug, use at your own risk, I'm not affiliated with Escort in anyway, speeding is illegal, driving can be dangerous, etc.

Cool. might have to grab one. my friend and i had to use my wallet to hold the plug for his ipod to FM transmiter in, since it would fall out otherwise. (engine isn't very interesting to listen to on the highway.)

Can you actually buy it from that site - I did a buy it now, you see it in the card, then click checkout and it says your cart is empty! I guess they really don't want to sell these...
