Makes a fast 12 volt outlet for your boat.

This product was cheap and good quality. A rare combination these days. The clamps easily fit a standard battery post and have strong springs to ensure good contact with the battery. The cord is 2ft long and 12 gauge and will easily carry 15 amps over a short 2ft distance to a rugged 12v waterproof outlet with a durable waterproof rubber cover that is difficult to see in a photo. This little gem is used on my boat to charge a 12v HID headlight with the included 12v car charger. I needed a 12v…

Pros
  • Clips directly to car battery
Cons
  • Modern

Good smooth cables and strong clamps

I use this cable with my solar panel kit and am very happy with the solid construction. I use a small solar panel to charge my deep battery and then attach these clips to the positive and negative terminals. voila; Instant DC jack. I also use these terminals on my car battery when I want to get the most performance out of my electronics. Combined with a small USB inverter I can get the full 140W out of it instead of the 100W available through the cigarette lighter. The cables are of medium…

Pros
  • Do not use with extension
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Gives you lots of charging options

I have 2 of these kits and they are great. Personally, I'll be using them with some old car batteries I have at home as a backup home charger for my tablets (using my tablets' car charger cable). I speak of backup power because I use uninterruptible power supplies (APC1000 and CyberPower1000) as a "primary" charger during frequent power outages for mobile devices and tablets (UPS are fancy ($) batteries anyway, albeit with outlets, so remember (not to throw away your old batteries. Yes I have a

Pros
  • Only holds 10 amps of current
Cons
  • So far so good

A good product! for tools and equipment

I bought this along with the "VIAIR 85P Portable Air Compressor" because I read too many reviews of people mentioning fuses in their car burn it out by plugging it into the cigarette lighter or DC sockets in their vehicles. It has worked great so far, I put all four tires on a car, a 2007 Mazda 3 hatchback with low profile sport tires and it has worked great. Good reliable connections. The only complaint I have is that the cable is only 2ft long so on some longer wheelbase cars/trucks it can be

Pros
  • Charge large 12V devices with battery
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Pros
  • tools and equipment
Cons
  • quality

I bought these with a mini car compressor, VIAIR 70P portable air compressor. - 00073. I wanted them so I could just hook them up directly to the battery, pump air into the tires and know I have enough wire length to do all 4. I don't think it should be a plug for a VIAIR device, but it really is an excellent little air compressor and the perfect accessory for it - almost a must have in my opinion. If you don't have those gator clips you lose a few feet of power cord length, you also have to…

Pros
  • battery chargers
Cons
  • poorly thought out

A good product! suitable for chargers

I bought this along with the "VIAIR 85P Portable Air Compressor" as I read too many reviews of people saying fuses in their car blow when they plug it into an outlet. Cigarette lighter or DC power outlets in their vehicles. It has worked great so far, I put all four tires on a car, a 2007 Mazda 3 hatchback with low profile sport tires and it has worked great. Good reliable connections. The only complaint I have is that the cable is only 2ft long so on some longer wheelbase cars/trucks it can be

Pros
  • Starters, chargers and portable power supplies
