Blue Sea Systems 1016 Dual USB Charger Socket, 12/24V DC, 2.1A, Black

The Blue Sea Systems 1016 is a dual USB charger socket built for dash mounting in boats, RVs, and other 12V/24V DC electrical systems. It provides two USB charging ports from a single dash-mounted socket, delivering a combined output of 2.1A at 5V DC (+/- 5%) to charge phones, tablets, and other USB-powered devices while underway.

Built for wet, high-vibration marine environments, the 1016 uses corrosion-resistant materials throughout and nickel-plated copper alloy for its current-carrying components, helping it resist the corrosion that plagues standard automotive-grade sockets on a boat. The plug uses a twist-lock system that locks securely into the socket so it will not work loose from engine and wave vibration, and internal strain relief plus a cord seal protect the wiring at the point of entry. A sealing ring on the plug helps it seat firmly and keep out spray, and a protective cap shields the socket opening when it is not in use.

The 1016 accepts either 12V or 24V DC input, making it compatible with the electrical systems found on most recreational boats. It is finished in black plastic and sized for a standard dash cutout alongside other Blue Sea Systems 12V sockets and plugs.
