Lighter/aux socket

anyone tell me if I can charge my battery through the lighter/aux socket on my 2012 tiger?

I should have said it's an optimate 3

 

So I don't have add another hook up lead and use the lighter plug that's supplied with it. Failing that I'll make up something to plug into my. Optimate socket. It's an oxford solar charger you see!

 

Cheers DD, I've found one can't charge through the lighter socket. So will go for one of these and get a tm connector fitted to the end of the solar panel wires. Job'll be a good one.

 

Nah the optimate 3 has sae connectors, so I have one wired to the battery. The solar panel comes with a variety of attachments. So I need to snip the end off one and attach it to that tm to sae adapter. I was hoping that the cigarette lighter option would work to save me all the bother.

 

Yup I have a later one. I didn't realise they changed model but not model number, how daft is that?!?

 

Now I'm really confused

 

Yup cheers doing that now
