Cable d'alimentació endoll de cigarret CP-25H

The CP-25H cigarette lighter cable is a power cable designed to provide DC power to an Icom-compatible charging socket from a vehicle or boat's cigarette lighter socket.

This cable is used to power and charge Icom portable marine VHF radios via their dedicated charging cradle, using a 12V DC power source available from a cigarette lighter socket.

The CP-25H cable is designed to operate with a 12V DC power source, typically provided by a standard cigarette lighter socket.

The CP-25H is a power cable. It supplies the current required to the radio’s charging base, but does not include the charging electronics itself. The charging function is handled by the charging base and the radio.

Yes, the CP-25H cable is specifically designed as an accessory for Icom marine handheld VHF radios, indicating it is intended for use in a nautical environment.

Yes, the CP-25H cigarette lighter cord is specifically designed to be used with the Icom BC-210 desktop charger.

It allows you to power the BC-210 charger from a 12V DC cigarette lighter socket, whether in a vehicle or on a boat. This setup enables you to recharge the batteries of compatible Icom portable VHF radios (such as the IC-M25, IC-M37, IC-M73, IC-M93D, IC-M94D, among others) via their charging cradle, even while on the move.

The built-in fuse in the CP-25H cigarette lighter cord is an essential safety component. Its primary role is to protect both the connected device (such as an Icom radio or BC-210 desktop charger) and the vehicle's (boat or car) electrical system from damage caused by overcurrents or short circuits.

In the event of an electrical overload or short circuit, the fuse filament melts, interrupting the current flow and preventing excessive currents from reaching sensitive components of your equipment or damaging the vehicle's wiring. It acts as an intentional weak link to ensure the safety and longevity of your devices.

The CP-25H cable is fitted with a standard male plug compatible with 12V DC cigarette lighter sockets found in vehicles and boats.

The CP-25H cigarette lighter cable is equipped with a standard cylindrical connector (also called a "barrel jack") to plug into a desktop charger or directly into certain compatible Icom radio models.

Its dimensions are:

Outer diameter: 5.5 mmInner diameter: 2.1 mmThese dimensions are critical for ensuring compatibility with your Icom device's input port.

No, the CP-25H cable is designed to connect to a specific Icom charging cradle (e.g., BC-217, BC-235), which then charges the radio. It cannot power the radio directly without the cradle.

The CP-25H cigarette lighter cable is designed to provide a 12V DC power supply with a current of 1A. Icom radios and desktop chargers compatible with this cable are those that accept such an input power for operation or battery charging.

Icom models compatible with the CP-25H cable include:

Icom radios: IC-705, IC-V80E, ID-52E.Desktop Icom chargers: BC-202, BC-210, BC-251.It is always recommended to consult your Icom device's user manual to confirm its specific power requirements.

No, the CP-25H cable is specifically designed for use with 12V DC cigarette lighter sockets. Using it with a 24V DC power source could damage the cable, the charging base, or the radio.

The CP-25H cable is designed with a specific connector and a 12V DC input for Icom charging bases. It is not recommended to use it to power other devices, as this could cause incompatibilities or damage.

The connectors of the CP-25H cable are designed to ensure correct connection with compatible Icom cigarette lighter sockets and charging bases, thus respecting the required polarity. Simply plug it firmly into the appropriate ports.

To install the CP-25H cord, plug the end with the cigarette lighter plug into a 12V DC socket on your vehicle or boat. Then connect the other end of the cord (the cylindrical connector) to the power input of your compatible Icom charging base.

No, the CP-25H cable is a standalone accessory designed to plug directly into a 12V DC cigarette lighter socket and an Icom-compatible charging base. No additional adapter is typically required.

Although the cable is designed for practical use, it is generally recommended to unplug accessories from cigarette lighter sockets when the vehicle or boat is not used for extended periods, to avoid potential battery drain.

To ensure reliable and durable installation of your CP-25H cigarette lighter cord in a marine environment, follow these precautions:

Cigarette lighter socket check: Ensure your boat’s cigarette lighter socket is clean, free of corrosion, and supplies a stable 12V DC power. A dirty or faulty socket can cause power cuts or improper charging.

Secure connection: Insert the CP-25H connector fully and firmly into the cigarette lighter socket. A loose connection can lead to power interruptions, overheating, or premature wear of the contacts, especially due to vibrations or boat movements.

Cable routing: Position the cable to avoid excessive tension, twisting, pinching, or snagging risks. If possible, secure the cable with cable ties or fasteners so it does not hang freely and is not subjected to constant movement that could stress the connection.

Environmental protection: Although the cord is designed for marine use, avoid prolonged direct exposure to spray, stagnant water, or repeated impacts that could damage the socket or cable over time.

Note: The CP-25H is not intended for continuous high-current loads. Avoid using it with devices exceeding the specified current rating to prevent overheating or damage.

After installation, test the connection under load to confirm proper operation before regular use.

No, the CP-25H cigarette lighter cable is not compatible with all Icom desktop chargers. It is specifically designed for certain models requiring a 12V 1A power supply via a straight cylindrical plug.

Icom desktop chargers compatible with the CP-25H cable include:

BC-202BC-251BC-210Always check the power supply specifications and connector type required by your Icom charger to ensure correct compatibility.
