I had my mechanic install another lighter socket.



One could even get a $13 Radio Shack lighter "splitter" until getting
around to having the extra installed.


You can do that but those devices throw off a lot of noise that you will
hear in your headset. Try a short flight with the setup before you take
a long flight.



Excellent point, one that I had forgotten. The splitter we use in the
plane has no LED power indicators or internal electronics. It's a
simple hardwired split.

One of the splitters I have has a three LED "charge level" indicator
that is noisy.
