DigiKey...(not sure if that is the correct spelling)...makes an inexpensive 'power-point'. I have some of them in my van that have given me good service for about a year now. These outlets or outlet/plug combos appear to be direct copies of an expensive 'marine' 12v socket set up. They offer a twist lock system style, also.
