Accessories to battery

I'm looking for a source of a gizmo I've seen before.

I'm added some lights and other things to my truck. What I would like is to connect them to my battery. I've seen before a dealy that hooks to the top post, has a top post to reconnect too. Then has accessory lugs on it.

I've not been able to find one so far. I don't realy want cut the end of my cables off to use a less than ideal universal bat. cable end.

I have a 99 superduty, too new to start hacking it up. Plus it has two battery cables stock. The stock batttrey bolt has tabs over it to keep it on the clamp. Which makes it not possiable to add cable rings or forks.

I would connect at the other end of the battery cable.

Check Jacobs Electronics, I beleive they are the ones that make the item you are looking for, at least they used to several years back.

I dont know if you tried to call Jacobs or not, but they used to have other products not listed in the web. The Product I was referring to is their "Power Accessory Battery Attachment Kit" - pert#503070. I purchased this a few years back, so I dont know the current status of mfg or not. I hope this helps.

Call up your area high performance sound shop. They have gold connectors that will work great for what your trying to do. They use em to hook up amps and stuff.
