DESCRIPTION
Reliable Dual USB Power Delivery for 12V and 24V Electrical Systems
The Blue Sea 12/24VDC Dual USB Charger Socket provides a dedicated, hardwired charging solution for mobile, marine, and off-grid power setups. Designed to convert a 12V or 24V DC input into a stable 5V 2.1A output across two USB-A ports, this socket eliminates the need for bulky plug-in adaptors that frequently vibrate loose in moving vehicles or vessels. Whether you are navigating corrugated outback tracks in a 4WD or dealing with choppy waters in a marine environment, this flush-mounted USB outlet delivers dependable power for smartphones, tablets, GPS units, and other essential electronics.
Engineered for Harsh Marine and Off-Grid Environments
Standard automotive USB sockets often fail prematurely when exposed to moisture, salt air, and continuous vibration. Blue Sea Systems addresses these vulnerabilities with marine-grade construction and thoughtful protective features. The unit includes a tethered, splashproof protective cap that seals the dual USB ports against dust, spray, and debris when not in use. This actively reduces the risk of internal corrosion and short circuits, ensuring long-term reliability in open cockpits, camper trailers, and utility vehicles.
- Dual USB-A Ports: Provides a combined 5V 2.1A output to charge two mobile devices simultaneously without requiring external 12V cigarette lighter adaptors.
- Wide Input Voltage Range: Compatible with both 12V and 24V DC systems, making it suitable for standard automotive setups, heavy trucks, and commercial marine vessels.
- Tethered Protective Cap: Shields internal contacts from moisture and dust ingress when the ports are not in use.
- Integrated Power Indicator: Features an internal green LED that confirms the socket is receiving power and allows you to easily locate the ports in low-light conditions.
- Versatile Panel Mounting: Supplied with a removable rectangular faceplate and a large nylon locking nut to accommodate panels up to 32mm thick.
- Standard Electrical Terminations: Equipped with 6.3mm male spade terminals on the rear for straightforward integration into existing wiring harnesses.
Streamlined Installation and Versatile Mounting
Installing the Blue Sea 1016B into a custom switch panel, dashboard, or cabinetry is straightforward for both professional auto electricians and DIY installers. The threaded barrel design secures firmly into standard mounting holes using the heavy-duty rear nylon locking nut, accommodating panel thicknesses up to 32mm. For installations requiring added structural support or a clean aesthetic finish over existing cutouts, the included rectangular mounting faceplate can be utilised.
Electrical connection is achieved via standard 6.3mm male spade terminals located at the base of the unit, allowing for quick, secure crimps using standard female spade connectors. By hardwiring this dedicated USB charger directly into your fused DC distribution system, you reduce voltage drop issues and loose connections commonly associated with temporary plug-in accessories.
Ideal Applications
With its understated black finish and robust architecture, this dual USB charging outlet integrates cleanly into a wide variety of DC power systems:
- Marine Vessels: Dashboards, helm stations, and cabin bulkheads on boats and yachts.
- Caravans and RVs: Bedside charging stations, dinette areas, and off-grid battery management panels.
- 4WDs and Touring Vehicles: Custom centre consoles, rear canopy power panels, and dual battery systems.
- Commercial and Heavy Vehicles: 24V truck cabs, agricultural machinery, and service bodies.
Upgrade Your Onboard Charging Capability
Ensure your navigation devices, communication gear, and personal electronics remain charged and ready for use. Integrate the Blue Sea 12/24VDC Dual USB Charger Socket into your electrical system for a permanent, professional-grade charging solution.
