Hello as the title says I am looking for a 12v volt plug and two sockets extension. Any ideas?. The ones I have seen so far are for marine environments and therefore very costly.

Thanks

I bought one of those from China, I might've been unlucky but it all melted and I threw it in the bin.
 
Beware. Cheapo Chinese sockets and chargers have been known to cause a fire.

I had one and threw it away when it got really hot. Glad I noticed.

Cig lighter socket will most probably be rated at 10amps (120watts)
The two extension sockets will be 5amp (60watts) each or maybe less with resistances.
Easy to overload the main socket.
 
I am looking to use a 12v socket that is connected to the leisure battery. At the moment it runs the avtex TV. I want to use it for a 12v camera
battery charger as well. Would that be OK?
 
The plug should have a fuse in it so it should be ok. I think this is different to the cheapo transformers changing 12v to 5v for charging phones etc its 12v to 2x 12v sockets

Chances are that socket will be rated at 15amps (180watts), but don't exceed 180watts between the two sockets.
Just check the wattage on the labels of whatever you want to plug in.
