My goodness, we could not put a 'cigar lighter' in an airplane today, we would get sued to death for contributing to lung cancer. Heck, it's all but illegal to smoke a cigarette in North America these days, let alone a cigar. I fully expect that within the next 1 to 2 years, the government here will ban possession of tobacco.
But... we have provided two 14 volt convenience outlets as standard equipment on every Series 400 Twin Otter. One is located on each side of the center pedestal - about beside where the radar screen used to go on the legacy aircraft.
14 Volt Outlets
They are provided to charge up your phone (or whatever). You won't need them to power a noise cancelling headset, because two David Clark noise cancelling headsets, permanently hardwired to and powered from the aircraft, are also provided as standard equipment. But, I suppose if you really want to use your own personal noise-cancelling headset (and not the ones that are basic to the aircraft), you could power it from these outlets.
