This Hulk 4X4 Dual Power Trailer Socket puts a 7 pin flat trailer plug and a 50A Anderson style outlet in one bit of gear so you can run lights and charge gear from the same point. The 7 pin flat side handles your standard 12V or 24V trailer lighting circuits while the Anderson style connector carries up to 50A for fridges or battery charging on camper trailers and caravans.

The housing uses a solid plastic body marked 12/24V 50A and mounts neatly on the back of the vehicle near the towbar. A built-in Nite-Lite helps you see the socket when you roll into camp after dark, and the reed switch gives contact-free switching inside the unit. It is straightforward to wire into an auxiliary 12V or 24V feed so you can get out there with a tidy, practical towing setup.

Q: Can this dual power trailer socket be used on both 12V and 24V towing setups?

Yes, the housing is marked 12/24V and is suitable for either voltage. You just match it to the supply voltage of your tow vehicle. Many 4WDs and light trucks use 12V while some heavier vehicles use 24V. The same socket can be wired accordingly, as long as the rest of the wiring and accessories match the chosen system.

Q: What type of plug does the trailer need to suit the high-current connection?

The trailer needs a compatible 50A Anderson style plug. This style mates with the 50A Anderson style connector built into the socket. It allows a solid high-current path for fridges, DC chargers or power circuits. Without the matching Anderson style plug on the trailer side, you will only use the 7 pin flat lighting functions.

Q: Where is this dual power socket normally mounted on the vehicle?

It is typically mounted near the towbar where a standard trailer socket would sit. The moulded ears on the housing suit flat mounting plates or custom brackets. Keeping it close to the hitch reduces cable runs to the trailer plug. It also keeps both the 7 pin flat and Anderson style connection together for simple coupling.

Q: What sort of gear is the 50A rating suited to on a camper or caravan?

The 50A Anderson style outlet is suited to higher draw 12V or 24V gear like compressor fridges, DC-DC chargers, or multiple accessory circuits on the trailer. The high-current capacity handles startup loads and sustained charging currents. Matching cable size and fusing on the vehicle and trailer sides is still important. This rating gives enough headroom for most touring setups without overloading the connector.
