Forgive me if this is not allowed, but I posted the following on the 'wanted' forum, but have realised that tumbleweed gets more views so thought I'd duplicate it here. If I'm breaking any rules I'm sure a mod will delete it...

Hi, I am after a Maypole 7423 battery charger 'fly lead'. I already have one hooked up permanently to the Ford, but want another for a second car. Maypole don't sell them (!!), so if you have one sitting in the box not being used, I'd love to hear from you...

    I've tried the 'internet' in general (Ebay, Amazon, Google...) - nothing 😦

    Probably just as cheap to buy a whole other charger.

    Did a search leaving out the brand name and came across a generic connector. Looks as if it may fit but obviously won't know till I get it, cost less than £4 inc P&P so no disaster if it doesn't. Will report back if it does to help others with same query...

    As promised, just reporting back.

    Lead arrived today (says UK listing but obviously comes from China!), and it is a perfect fit, and good quality as well. Worth every bit of £3.79 inc FREE P&P.

    No point giving an Ebay link becasue that'll date very quickly, but if you type in the following description, you should be able to track down a current listing.

    "UK Motorcycle Battery Terminal Connector Harness 12V Charger Adapter Cable Plug"

    And here's the current listing just in case...
