Trickle charger cable end holder

thingiverse

This is a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4039474 After creating the original version of this to manage USB extension cable ends on my printer, I realized that it would work just as well for securing the ends of cable disconnects for trickle chargers. We keep our garden tractor and motorcycle on trickle charge at all times when they're not being used so as to help extend battery life, particularly in colder weather. The charger cables are permanently wired in for convenience, but the connectors were merely tied with adhesive tie blocks and weren't very secure. This is essentially the same set of parts that I made for the 20x20 rail setup on my printer, minus the back rib on the base plate. This way it can be mounted flush to a surface. As you can see in the photo, it's a nearly perfect fit for the cable end and makes it super easy to connect and disconnect the charger block. This should be useful for almost any vehicle with a trickle charger setup that has a disconnect as shown, I think. This is the specific trickle charger it was designed for - notice the disconnect plugs on the cable ends. There are many different variants of this though, all sharing the same basic connectors. https://www.harborfreight.com/4-amp-fully-automatic-microprocessor-controlled-battery-chargermaintainer-63350.html I've also used this one and it works okay, but I prefer the one listed above better. https://www.harborfreight.com/12v-deluxe-battery-maintainer-and-float-charger-62813.html Either one of them will work with this holder just fine. I hope this helps you out. Thanks for taking a look at it.
