MUCH better than Cigarette Lighter socket! (12V, DC)

Finally, finally, finally found something I can use instead of the crappy Cigarette Lighter plug & socket. Have been looking a long time for something like this.
Bought one off Amazon to try it out, and immediately installed it for the LED light on the B2601 Kubota.
(Installed it 180° wrong, but wasn't concerned enough to change it!)

Called "CNLINKO LP-20 Industrial Waterproof Connector IP68" and about $14 for the plug & socket:

So this plugs into the wall outlet of 120AC then?

So if you use more than one accessory you'd have to buy more plugs ?

Depends, the plug/socket combo can be bought with 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 or 12 pins, so it could be wired in a way to power multiple accessories.

I was just fed up with the cigarette lighter plug always falling out. I even installed a version that was supposed to secure to the socket; that didn't work either, and I kept having to wiggle the connection to make electrical contact.

here's the one I bought:
 
I could see where this could be real handy in several ways. I have two tractors and my four wheeler that have cigarette lighter plugs. I have a HDMI plug in my four wheeler. I have a couple of hand held spot and flood lights, and tire inflator that would work too.

oh oh oh, I get this now. These were once used in the RV and trailer industry before the flat-4 and round-5 or round-7 became the norm.

I have an old trailer I need to convert to a flat-4.
