Can the cable that plugs into the cigarette lighter slot alone powers this console on without connecting a cable to my car battery?

Yes, the included cigarette power adapter will power the unit by simply plugging into your vehicles cigarette lighter socket.

the cable directly connects straight into the xbox controller. if you have a charging battery pack it will charge the battery otherwise it will power the controller without the need for batteries.

It has a cord that plugs into the cigarette lighter but not into an electric socket.

no it does not plug into the cigarette lighter . I have mine hooked up direct from the battery .. that way the ignition does not have to be on while I am using it when I am not driving

Can I use the car cigar lighter outlet to charge this? I have to purchase a "cigar to cigar" cable I suppose?

I do not unplug mine whether in use or not. However my power is only on when the car is on.

Yes, it plugs into any 12 volt DC power outlet in your vehicle. Those don't have to be cigarette lighters.

Yes but you need a cig. lighter or aux power outlet that powers on and off with the car ignition and optional power cord , it will power up when you turn on the ignition , Camera menu must be set to "Car Mode"

Yes, it can you simply use the included cigarette lighter connector but remember most autos won't charge to this connection when the ignition is off.

Technically yes, the system runs on its internal battery so plugging it into the cigarette lighter will charge it. I found what I have to do is leave my Bluetooth on my phone in the "on" position all the time, and turn this off when I get out of the car. Then when I return to the car, turn it on and my phone automatically connects. A bit of an annoyance but it beats all the other wires hanging around and the feedback I used to get from them.

Not unless you want to. It runs off the car battery as supplied through the cigarette lighter (accessory power outlet). Depending on he vehicle, you may have to have the ignition key turned to the on position to have access to battery power, but you don't necessarily have to have the engine running. I would only run the engine if your battery power is low or if you're going to spend forever inflating multiple items.

It requires the AC power supply. I suppose you could plug it into an AC/DC converter and plug that into your cigarette lighter, but at that point I think you are getting more complicated than it's worth.

You cigarette lighter socket/Aux. Socket is likely fused with a 10, 15, 20 amp fuse. An attempt to put anything in that slot and draw meaningful power from it would instantly blow that cigarette lighter socket fuse. So no.

No, it includes it's own power wire that connects to the cigarette lighter.

yes the cable work with out the battery, plus it keeps your controller on with the charging cable pluged in the controller. but it wont carge your controller on it own with out charging battery that is attached to the controller, it would need a charging battery that can be charged to keep the controller on and active.

Yes, the console needs to be plugged to a power outlet, it comes with a cord and you can use any sticks with it, I use B sticks too.

No.It connects to the battery harness with the quick connect that you need to get.This is an excellence addition for usb power.
