Review on BlueFire Waterproof Dual USB Charger Socket with Cigarette Lighter, Clock, and Voltmeter - Ideal for Motorcycle Handlebars & Rear View Mirror by Alex Ferry

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't expect too much for the money

Benefits first. Installation was easy as the built in fuse allowed direct connection to the battery. The lighter works with a slight adjustment of the inner eyelets (do not forget to pull the fuse). I haven't had a reason to use USB yet. Now the back. One of the bracket screws was missing, not fatal. However, it was larger than expected and instead of mounting it over the bars I went for the side, under the tank and immediately lost easier use on the road because the fastener is not secure. How can it be weather resistant when it opens up? I'm still looking for a workaround, either using a metal mod or epoxy to raise the plastic edge up to the connector. The plastic tip and cap slot are cheap and wear out quickly with use. Also, the clock and calendar settings never change immediately after a short ride (vibration?). Otherwise, for the price, it's a worthwhile upgrade and a talking point when you're lighting a cigarette next to your bike.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Low maintainability
