Cigarette Lighter Female Socket to 5.5 × 2.5mm / 5.5 × 2.1mm Female DC Adapter
The BiXPower CGF525F converts a power source with a
5.5 × 2.5mm or 5.5 × 2.1mm male DC barrel connector
to a standard cigarette-lighter-style female power socket.
The main adapter cable has a 5.5 × 2.5mm female DC jack.
The included 5.5 × 2.1mm adapter allows the same cable to accept a
5.5 × 2.1mm male power plug, giving you two commonly used
DC connector options in one package.
Key Features
- Cigarette lighter female socket output
- 5.5 × 2.5mm female DC jack on the main cable
- Includes 5.5 × 2.1mm female to 5.5 × 2.5mm male adapter
- Accepts compatible 5.5 × 2.5mm or 5.5 × 2.1mm male power plugs
- Compact and easy to use
- No electronic conversion circuitry inside
- Pass-through electrical connection — output voltage follows input voltage
Convert a DC Barrel Power Connection to a Cigarette Lighter Socket
The CGF525F provides a convenient way to power equipment that uses a
cigarette-lighter-style male plug from a compatible DC power
source equipped with a barrel connector.
The main cable accepts a 5.5 × 2.5mm male DC connector.
Simply plug your compatible DC power cable into the 5.5 × 2.5mm female jack,
and the other end provides a standard cigarette lighter female socket.

5.5 × 2.5mm Female DC Input
The standard CGF525F cable has a 5.5 × 2.5mm female barrel jack.
It can connect directly to a compatible power source or cable equipped with a
5.5 × 2.5mm male DC plug.
Also Works with 5.5 × 2.1mm Male Power Plugs
A 5.5 × 2.1mm female to 5.5 × 2.5mm male adapter
is included with the CGF525F.
Plug the adapter into the main cable's 5.5 × 2.5mm female jack to change
the input connection to a 5.5 × 2.1mm female jack.
You can then connect a compatible 5.5 × 2.1mm male DC power plug.
The adapter has a 5.5 × 2.1mm female jack on one side
and a 5.5 × 2.5mm male plug on the other side.

Important: This Adapter Does Not Convert Voltage
The CGF525F is a connector adapter only.
There is no voltage-conversion or voltage-regulation circuit inside.
The adapter changes the physical connector type only.
The voltage, current capability, and polarity supplied to the cigarette lighter
socket depend on the connected power source.
For example, connecting this adapter to a 12V DC power source will provide
approximately the same 12V DC through the cigarette lighter socket.
The adapter itself does not change 12V to another voltage.
Check Electrical Compatibility Before Use
A matching connector does not automatically mean that two
devices are electrically compatible. Before connecting your equipment,
verify:
- Input voltage required by the equipment
- Connector size — 5.5 × 2.5mm or 5.5 × 2.1mm
- Polarity of the power source and connected equipment
- Current / power requirement of the connected device
- Current capability of the power source, cable, and connectors
Important:
Always confirm the voltage and polarity of your power source before connecting
equipment to the cigarette lighter socket. Incorrect voltage or polarity can
damage connected equipment.
Typical Applications
The CGF525F can be useful when you already have a compatible DC power source
with a barrel connector but need a cigarette lighter female socket
for your equipment.
Possible applications include compatible:
- Portable battery systems
- Rechargeable battery packs
- DC power supplies
- DC-to-DC converters
- Portable electronics
- Automotive accessories
- Mobile equipment
- 12V and other compatible DC-powered equipment
Always verify the required voltage, polarity, current, and connector type
before use.
