Is that the name ?? of the charger thingy
Anyway, the duke's got connectors for one and should really be plugged into something as it's not getting out as much (cranking was a bit slow this morning) this time of year
Does anyone know if you can just get the connector, so I can attach my battery charger to it periodically, or is the best bet just to blow another £30 odd on an optimate

do I blow money I haven't got, or keep taking the bloody fairing offInco - I supply the bits
see the write up of the attachments on my suppliers site:
the standard opt3 comes with connectors straight to your already fitted socket - and the socket again, so a whole one would be overkill.

and barry, why not upgrade to an optimate 8...

None of the accessories on your (or the optimate) site have them
Maybe I should design a kickstart
PS discount for PHers ??
I have fitted a socket (discreetly) into the seat unit vents on my Duke so that Optimate can be plugged in in seconds (like a mobile phone
) those v-twins take some starting and mine always sounds like it's not going to, but has never let me down (yet). But I think this is because it virtually lives 'on charge'. For the sake of a £30 optimate I'd say go for it.
You wouldn't want to try and bump start it

what about the cigarette lighter adaptor bit? more than one use then... phone charger, etc//
The fag socket has the connector to go onto the optimate not the other end (at least how I understand it)
I may just buy the extension lead, but that says only optimate III or somesuch, and I've no idea what connector mine is
I can tak a piccy if you like
My optimate came with a fag lighter socket end (male) on it, but that was joined to the wiring from the Optimate by an R/C car type connector. Maplins do these kind of connectors - hopefully this is what you need mate.
