Review on Hopkins 47965 2 Pole Flat Extension by Oscar Chambers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic connections!

I use these things all the time at work. It's always good to disable a connection if you think you'll need it in the future. It's a single connected stand, but you just cut it in half and connect one half to a power supply and the other half to a load. No, I don't think it comes with instructions like people have pointed out, but it's pretty self-explanatory. ONE BIG THING you might not think of: each of the plugs has two pins; one isolated, one not. ALWAYS connect them so that the HOT terminal on the BATTERY side of your circuit is ISOLATED. I've used a ton of these, and as soon as I stop paying attention and lose focus for just a second, I'm going to wire it up so my hot stream coming off my battery is on a bare pin. If you do this, if you ever need to unplug in the future, as soon as you let go of your circuit's battery-side connector, it will 100% find a bare spot of metal and ground. Outside. If you were ALSO lazy and missed the wiring in the fuse, just sit back and enjoy the sparks. there will be no problems! Oh, and as someone else mentioned, yes, this wire is 16-18 gauge.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Piggy bank Price
