Review on ⚡️ Fisher Price 12 Volt Battery Harness Connector: A Hassle-Free Power Solution by Darrin Lucas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use your own battery!

I bought this because of the videos I saw about installing a larger battery (more capacity) for my girls Power Wheels Dune Racer. I also bought 3 things from Revain: this product, a battery (Expert Power EXP12200) and a charger. The Dune Racer has a cavity at the very front (and a small hood over it) where the factory battery will be held when shipped. This adapter allows you to keep the stock Power Wheels suspension (so you can continue to use it with a stock battery) and add a larger battery. When the bigger battery dies, I can always plug in the old one if I want. I went to the local hardware store to buy 12 ga wire, clamps and wire holders that run from the back of the car (where the adapter ends) to the front of the car (where the battery is stored). I then used self tapping screws to attach the wire holders to the plastic. In the first photo, the adapter is connected to the charger. I just charge the battery in the car as the battery is heavy and the wiring is bolted to the car. In the last 2 photos the battery is in front of the car. The middle photos are just the wiring from the battery to the adapter. It's not pretty/professional work - I did it in 30 minutes in 20 degree weather and my hands went numb, but you get an idea of how it works. The new battery changed the ride time from 15-20 minutes to an hour. If you choose to do that, we have about $80 for everything. I need to clean up the wiring a bit but it works great and my kids loved it. The kids got tired in front of the car ;)
