Lightbulb Power Outlet!!!

I was out riding today and stopped by Harbor Freight Tools and found a power plug that has a cigarette lighter plug on one end, and a plug that fits the battery tender plug on my Road King on the other end. This is the standard plug that anybody should have if they use a battery tender. It was $3.99 and will be worth every penny.

Thank for passing that on. I had made on just like that but had to use a tender adapter and female cig plug, so as you can expect, had more than 4 bucks tied up in that set up. hope others see and pick up one of these.

The tender adapters are available at any Radio Shack.

Wow! That's a great find! I had no idea that anything like that was available! I'm gonna have to go pick myself up one of those!

Thanks for posting!

This is the solution I came up with for my bike. I now sell these for $65.00 shipped to your door.

I was going to use the other end of the batt tender but it had a short in it from the factory so I went a step further and made a housing for mine and fused it to the batt. its perfect for my fatboy. I can light a smoke or charge the cell in my saddle bags. check it out.
