In case you're one of those non-smoker types, the lighter is only live when the ignition's on, and its cable isn't very fat, which might affect whatever you're connecting to it

Holy thread revival.... Can I deduce that it's safe to leave an FM transmitter jobie connected to the cigarette lighter socket all of the time? Assume so given the lack of power when ignition is off....?

Short answer = Yes.

In 2007 people were plugging a range of bizarre objects into their cig lighter sockets to get a 12Volt feed.
Nowadays it's mostly audio transfer (like yours) or phone charging devices, all of which use far less wattage that the original cig lighter did.
And, as said, as the socket has no power when ignition is off, there's no chance of running the battery flat accidentally.

Fantastic, thanks for replying Jon. I'm very impressed your still on here too!

All the best
