Does anyone know if the cigarette lighter plug that comes with the
Garmin 396 can be used on a 24-volt system (assuming it would
physically fit) The manual is vague on this.

What is vague about "Power source: 11-35 VDC"

Is the 24Volt system stepped down to 12Volt for the Cig lighter?
Check the auto/aircraft manual for that one.

There are not too many appliances that are ready to plug into 24Volt
systems.

Could always "smoke check" with a cheaper appliance.

That is for the unit. Garmin calls the cigarette lighter adaptor the
"12-volt" adaptor. Sounds like it should be called the "11-35V
adaptor". Perhaps ambigous would be a better word than vague.
