Answer:

RadioShack

$29.99

AC-to-DC Portable Power Supply

Model: 22-505 | Catalog #: 22-505

Plug this handy AC-to-DC portable power supply into a wall outlet and use your wireless phone%26#39;s 12VD...

It%26#39;s at the bottom of the page, next to last. Radio Shack, you have questions, they have answers. Saw one there just yesterday, in fact, at the Radio Shack...not sure what it%26#39;s called either, but previous respondent was correct that they have them! It%26#39;s an adaptor, and not that expensive. Howdy. I%26#39;m not exactly sure what you mean by "you plug it into your house so you can plug a cigarette lighter plug into it" - this wording has me a little confused!

;p

However, if you are referring to what I think you are, you are trying to describe an INVERTER.

Inverters take the 12v car battery voltage, and invert it into 115vAC(if you live in USA), or 230vAC(if you live in places like England, Australia, New Zealand, etc...)

This allows you to use a 12v battery to run domestic household appliances such as computers, stereos, VCR%26#39;s TV%26#39;s etc, all from a 12v battery(Cigarette socket).
