Default Electrical 12 volt power adapter

Hi! I have a 99 Road King and would like to plug in my automotive 12 volt charger for my cell phone into something. Is there a pigtail I can use with a female cigarette-type adapter that will plug into my battery tender's lead of that has two eyehole connectors for the battery? Thanks! I'll be taking a road trip and would like a power source to stash in my saddlebag for my cell while riding.

If you check at an autoparts store or a radio shack, you can get the pigtail that can be used for what you need. I've got them in a boating supply store because most boating hardware is stainless so it doesn't rust.

Ok, thanks. Is it just two leads to the batter (one positive and one negative) or is there an additional ground which must be installed? Ideally, I'd like to have an adapter I can plug into the pigtail lead for the battery tender lead already attached to the battery. Thanks!

You should be able to duplicate that pigtail if you go to a radio shack.
