Does the charger wiring come with the waterproof covers to protect it from weather on the bike? If not, do you sell them?

My charger wiring did not come with any waterproof covers. Nor have I found any anywhere. The connectors have a clear plastic cover but I would not consider them waterproof. In fact, the charger itself would need to protected because the wiring is very short. I would suggest a plastic baggie that was securely sealed around the wire for protection and checked frequently.

I've got this charger and the matching Shorai battery on my Ducati. The way it works is it plugs into a port on the battery itself and then it has a pig tail come off on the end going to the charger that does have a rubber boot/cover you put over it when you're not charging it. I thought it was a pretty nice setup, but expensive.

Evans,All the connections on the wiring are considered "water resistant" not "water proof" wiring connections will resist rain but for best results you should use silicone dielectric on the actual connection metal contacts. This will prevent any corrosion in case water does enter the connector.It is a good product, good luck

There's no cover, its a circuit board set into a plastic mounting tray, with a rubbery substance covering the components (what's referred to here as potting). So to contradict myself, if you consider the potting a cover, you got it. I believe in this usage (wet location) it serves to protect the circuit from water.

My bike is parked on my driveway with a bit of shelter. We have not had a lot of rain yet. There is a vent in the cover which allows moisture out. I have had a very small amount of condensation from putting the cover on when the bike is warm. So far it has been completely dry when I take the cover off. The top part of the cover is rubber lined inside. The bottom can take heat from the engine and exhaust. Not sure if that is waterproof or if it matters.

The horns themselves are, yes, though you will want to weatherproof the connectors somehow. I have them mounted on a motorcycle, right up front by the headlights, and have never had an issue with them even after riding in the rain. It's also worth noting that to run these correctly, you're going to want to use the supplied relay. Wired up according to the diagram, there is no voltage at the terminals until you press the horn button and energize the relay.

Yes. My cover has withstood the torrential downpours of the Georgia springs and I've never had a wet bike. Great cover. Very we'll made. Had mine for just over a year now.

I'm not an electrician so I can't give you a professional answer. From my understanding, however, any outlets outside should have a special cover made for outdoor use.

Yes, it comes with a cover. But it says not to trailer with the cover on the unit. As far as being waterproof....not sure. I have left mine on the boat several times with heavy rain and it still functions. I had heard there were issues with units being flush mounted on the bow...and the water could not drain properly. I can't say if they fixed that issue or not. I just have to remind myself to cover my unit and remove from boat when not using it. So far I'm happy with my unit. I've had mine almost a year now.

No it does not come with a waterproof cover. We stopped using the mesh cover ourselves cause we found after rain and a couple days went by there was mold in the sand. So no more cover at all and all has been well

It does have a protective cover over the outlet, so you don't have to worry about rain getting in there, but if you were going to take your bike through a car wash, I would cover it with a plastic bag before just to be on the safe side.

I don't ride much in the rain, but it seems to be highly tolerant to rain, if not waterproof. There is a rubber o-ring seal on the battery pack, a rubber plug cover on charge port, the and the power switch is also rubber.

It is waterproof as far as I can tell.. it is all plastic covered and so are the ends as they plug into each other and have a plastic cover.. if you cut it for length it has adapters and they are also plastic covered and make a seal on the cut section.. I have mine permanently placed on my deck and have had them up for 1 and 1/2 years with no problems.

I did not get a cover. It has a drain plug so we empty it after each use. Keeps it from getting scummy. (The cover would probably blow away in our yard anyway. We get a lot of wind. )

I bought one in 2010, and it came with the covers. I damaged that one, and just received the new one I ordered. It does not have the covers. In fairness, it's now pictured without the covers, and the text doesn't claim that it comes with them. I do find the covers useful, and I think the cable should come with them. I'll scavenge the ones from the damaged cable and use those, but it's annoying that Battery Tender did away with them to save, what, less than a nickel, probably?

I received everything shown in the picture, although I believe mine had the connector with the wires and sockets already assembled...I recommend soldering the wires to the factory harness, unless you have some good waterproof compression connectors. Twisting and taping, or even wire nutting throws off the temp reading by a couple degrees...Soldering fixed it, and mine now reads the correct temp...Been working for about 6 months.

1)I have no idea if there's a cover or not- I never used one. 2)I've ran it in summer rains, didn't seem to hurt it. Having said that I live in Seattle but pulled it inside for the winter time.

no but they sell a cover that has a molded part to fit over the stack.. it's good quality now that they've updated the material.. waterproof as well.. they sell it here or at the char griller site.

Pending if they are weather proof/safe. its not plug type, its split wire type. Just just to say for when you get those speacks
