Learn what the Quad Lock 360 Waterproof 12V to USB Smart Adaptor powers, how its On/Off/Auto modes work, and whether it fits your motorcycle, boat, or caravan setup.
Quick answer
The Quad Lock 360 Waterproof 12V to USB Smart Adaptor powers a Quad Lock Weatherproof Wireless Charging Head from a 12V–24V supply on motorcycles, boats, and caravans. Choose it when you need a weather-resistant, switchable power link between your vehicle and charging head.
Why the switching modes matter more than the plug
The Smart Adaptor is not just a voltage converter; it gives you three power states. On is for constant 12V–24V supplies such as a boat or caravan, where you want the adaptor live whenever the source is active. Auto keeps the device off until the input reaches a threshold, which suits vehicle circuits that should not drain the battery when the engine is off. Off cuts power entirely for storage or troubleshooting.
This distinction matters because a fixed adapter would leave you either rewiring or unplugging every time. The mode you pick should match how your vehicle’s 12V socket behaves, not just the device you are charging.
What it does not include
The adaptor is part of the 360 Kit Builder ecosystem and is designed to power a Quad Lock Weatherproof Wireless Charging Head. It does not include the charging head, a mounting base, or a phone case, so budget for those separately if you are building a full setup. Also check that your vehicle’s supply falls within the stated 12V–24V range; the catalog does not list lower-voltage support.
If you need to charge multiple devices at once, this adaptor is not a multi-port hub. It is a single power link for one charging head.
Decision rules for choosing this adaptor
- Match the power source: Use the Smart Adaptor only with a 12V–24V supply. If your vehicle uses a lower voltage, this is not the right power accessory. Confirm your supply voltage before ordering.
- Pick the switching state: Set On for constant supplies like boats or caravans; set Auto for vehicle circuits where you want the device off until input rises; use Off for storage. Choose Auto if you are unsure whether your socket stays live.
- Confirm the charging head: This adaptor is intended to power a Quad Lock Weatherproof Wireless Charging Head. If you use a different charging head, verify compatibility first. The adaptor is not a universal USB charger for any device.
- Plan the full kit: The adaptor does not include a mount base or phone case. Add those 360 components separately if you are starting from scratch. Check your existing 360 kit before buying duplicates.
