You would be better off with a camp stove, boiling pot and a French press than a 12v. They take about an hour to make a cup of luke warm coffee. Thought about this, but with my job I travel a lot and am in my vehicle a lot.. was hoping for something I could heat up with either plug in 12v or battery operated.. Thanks

12 volt coffee pot is a waste of money. you will need to run a heavier wire than your stock cigarette lighter plug also. if you put in a big enough fuse you will get it too hot. after you run a heavy enough wire and install a 40 amp inline fuse you will find out your coffeemaker sucks. hook up a converter to your battery. needs to be a big one. run a 110 pot off that. a percolator and this https://www.amazon.com/Coleman-Powe...+PerfectFlow+1-Burner+Propane+Camp+Stove will work lots better

As stated, no such thing as a quick 12v coffee maker. Do you drive a pickup? I've settled on a gas powered generator, as a quick coffeemaker uses 1000w. Enough battery will do the job with a converter but it's a lot of screwing around.

small back pack stove(Mine is a Peak brand with1 small burner and runs on Coleman fuel or kerosene) and a small percolator. I use coffee filters in mine. just poke a hole in the filter with the stem. Make REALLY HOT coffee. You won't need no stinking electric. lol.

A couple of years ago my daughter bought me a 12V style so I could have fresh hot coffee on the job site. It made individual 12 oz cups. It was a great idea but the thing was extremely under-powered. It took forever to brew a cup and wasn't nearly hot enough for my liking, more like luke-warm.
Eh...wot?

Another vote for the French Press. I'm also a big fan of freshly ground beans... For being off the shelf Dunkin Donuts Whole Bean makes a pretty darn good cup of Joe.
