can you buy a lead/adaptor that will connect one cars cigar lighter to another?
I ask because I have a Blackspur battery charger/booster that connects via clamps, but also has a cigar lighter socket.

If I could connect the booster via the 2 cigar lighter sockets I could trickle charge, without having to stand outside to keep the boot open (where the battery is on my model.)

Those sockets aren't always live. My Nissan needs the key in the ignition turned to the accessory position before the socket's powered up.
