Where to get SAE connectors?

Try an RV place if you have one close by as well.

Holy old thread Batman! I found them at a place called Terminal Supply Company in Troy, Michigan. Right by where I worked, and we bought stuff from them to do preliminary work on electric vehicles. Doh. They were like $1 apiece, not the $7.99 RS wanted for them if they ordered them.

How about this type of connector with a cigarette lighter outlet on the other end, for an accesory in a tank bag, GPS, mp3 etc.....?

Anyone ?  Anyone?

I found this:



At Eastern Beaver http://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/connectors.html.  He's in Japan and, as I remember, low dollar orders have a crazy-high shipping cost.  He's got lots of cool stuff that I can tell myself I'll use someday.  I put together an order this spring including an SAE to lighter cable, an SAE "Y" cable, and several SAE extension cables that I then cut in half to install on the bikes.  (I also picked a few SAE caps but I didn't see CB's thread until after he was taken care of.)

A new Ace hardware opened near me a while back and they had a full Battery Tender display that had all sorts of SAE cables.

When I was looking for SAE connectors, Radio Shack was less than helpful.  But I showed them, I bought AAA batteries and gave them the wrong zip code.

Are these on their website?  If so, what are they calling them?  I work near Troy, so I'd like stop and pick some up.  Did you just take one with you?

Thanks - wr

Just called them SAE connectors. They will know what you are talking about.
