Default Porsche cigarette plug charger - Worth anything?

I have this original Porsche cigarette plug charger that came with the car. I have a newer unit now. Is this worth anything? Its only gathering dust at the moment.

Considering you can get a new CTEK 3300 for about $60 that does more, not much.

I have a battery tender plus also. that's why i don't need this. It does have a very long cord though.

Just bought one of these for this winter at Suncoast for $60. Works great so far.

Not only do you have your steering wheel on the wrong side in the UK but your cigarette lighter socket is screwed up too!

That is cheap; you guys are getting off lucky.

I've put $64 into the gas tank of my motorcycle.

Thank you for the charger. I just received it and I really appreciate it. Just a question (for you or anyone that knows). does the red light stay on all the time or does it go out when fully charged?
