Portable Car Heater 12V 120W – Plug-In Windshield Defroster & Defogger | Traverseon

12V Portable Car Heater and Windshield Defroster for Cold Mornings

The Traverseon portable car heater plugs into a standard 12V cigarette lighter socket and directs warm air exactly where you need it: at a fogged or frosted windshield, a side window or your hands. On cold mornings it helps clear the glass and adds warmth to the front seat area while your vehicle's own heater is still warming up. This 12 volt heater suits commuters who park outdoors, and it makes a practical winter gift for anyone who drives in the cold.

Three settings cover fan-only airflow, warm air and higher heat, a single button on top switches between them, and the LED display shows the selected setting at a glance. The heater swivels 360° and tilts approximately 45°, so you can aim the mesh air outlet at the glass or at the driver. The Standard version attaches to the dashboard with its adhesive base; the Suction Mount version adds a windshield suction mount for vehicles with limited dashboard space.

The heater is rated at 120W and draws about 10A, within the rating of most 12V accessory sockets. A fused cigarette lighter plug with dual copper contacts, a copper-core power cord of approximately 1.4 m (4.6 ft) and an ABS housing complete the design. The heater measures approximately 15.3 × 13 × 7.8 cm (6.0 × 5.1 × 3.1 in) with its base and weighs approximately 350 g (12.3 oz). It comes in black with silver trim or black with gunmetal trim.

• 12V Windshield Defroster, a Clearer View Sooner on Cold Mornings
  A fogged or frosted windshield is often the first thing that delays a winter drive. This heater sits on the dashboard and sends warm air straight at the glass while the vehicle's own heater is still warming up, so the windshield begins to clear sooner and you can start your drive with better visibility. It also helps when the glass fogs up again on a damp or snowy drive.
• Supplemental Warm Air, Comfort Before the Cabin Heats Up
  The first minutes in a cold vehicle are the least comfortable, before the heater vents begin to deliver warm air. Point the heater toward the driver's seat and it delivers a steady stream of warm air to your hands and the front seat area, adding comfort until the vehicle's heating system reaches full temperature.
• Plug-In Setup With a 1.4 m Cord, Ready Without Tools or Wiring
  There is no need to open the dashboard, run cables to the battery or book an installation. Plug the heater into a standard 12V cigarette lighter socket and it is ready to use. The copper-core cord of approximately 1.4 m (4.6 ft) gives you room to set it on the dashboard, mount it at the windshield or turn it toward the passenger side.
• Fused Plug With Dual Copper Contacts, a Firm and Steady Connection
  A loose plug can shift in the socket and interrupt power. This heater uses a cigarette lighter plug with two copper side contacts that grip the socket firmly, and a 15A fuse built into the plug to protect the heater's own power cord. Combined with the copper-core cord and ABS housing, it delivers steady power from the socket to the heater.
• 3 Settings on One Button, the Right Airflow for Every Morning
  A damp autumn morning and a frosted winter morning call for different help. Setting 1 moves air without heating to clear light condensation, Setting 2 adds warm air for everyday defogging, and Setting 3 delivers higher heat when frost covers the glass. One press of the button on top switches settings, so you can match the output to the weather in a moment.
• LED Display, Check the Selected Setting at a Glance
  When you are getting ready to drive, there is little time to study small switches. The front LED display shows the selected setting clearly, even in early-morning darkness, so you can confirm the heater is running on the level you want with a quick glance and keep your attention on the road.
• 360° Swivel and 45° Tilt, Aim Warm Air Exactly Where You Need It
  Fog rarely forms evenly across every window. The heater rotates a full 360° and tilts approximately 45°, so you can direct the airflow at the center of the windshield, a side window or your hands. Aim it at the glass first on frosty mornings, then turn it toward the driver once the windshield is clear.
• Adhesive Base or Windshield Suction Mount, Tool-Free Setup With Warm Air Right at the Glass
  There is no drilling, wiring or tool kit involved. The adhesive base on the Standard version sticks to a flat section of the dashboard, and the Suction Mount version presses straight onto the windshield. Once in place, the heater sends warm air across the glass to clear fog and frost, and it can then be turned toward you for added warmth on cold mornings.
• Rated 120W at 10A, Steady Warmth From Your Existing 12V Socket
  Rated at 120W with a draw of about 10A, this heater is sized to work within the rating of most 12V accessory sockets. That balance lets it run steadily from the socket already beside your dashboard, so you can rely on it through the cold months without adding new wiring or an inverter.
• Compact Design in Two Trim Colors, Leaves Room on the Dashboard
  At approximately 15.3 × 13 × 7.8 cm (6.0 × 5.1 × 3.1 in) and 350 g (12.3 oz), the heater sits neatly on the dashboard, leaves room for a phone mount and other accessories, and moves easily to a second vehicle. Silver or gunmetal trim around the air outlet and display complements the black body, so it blends well with your interior.
