NOCO GBC009 Boost 18.5-Inch SAE Adapter Extension Cable For GB20/GB40/GB50 NOCO Boost UltraSafe Lithium Jump Starters

Update: I spent a few hours trying to fit this adapter into the limited space inside my Yamaha R6. It's worth mentioning that I already have a fully featured alarm, a USB charger in the trunk area, and two SAE splitters (of which, one connector of one splitter is located in the trunk, along with the entirety of the second splitter.) This adapter is technically long enough to reach the trunk and be usable on a GB40 Booster. The problem arises when I attach the SAE adapter, which will be its orientation for about 99% of its use in this application. To have the booster lead accessible for the booster, it has to be at the shallow top of the trunk area, and reasonably secured there. Now, attach the SAE adapter to it, and it's taking up a great deal of space while also threatening to make it difficult to reattach the passenger seat. Also, the SAE splitters would then have to make a very abrupt 180° turn in order to move back into the trunk area, placing undue stress on the cables. Long story short: It seemed like a great idea for my bike, but it will still easily fit under the hood of my car. [I've included a photo of approximately where the connector would have been positioned in the bike's trunk.] Original First Impressions: This adapter cable seems to be quite robust and well built. With that being said, there are a few concerns I have with its dimensions. I can't imagine it's quite long enough to prove useful in the "trunk" area of my sportbike, and the end of it is rather large compared to a standard Battery Tender branded lead. This may mean I will still have to remove the rider seat (which requires a tool, rather than just a key) to access the booster portion of lead. If it had been of an appropriate length to reach the trunk, space is already pretty limited there. It's understandable that the size of the connector would have to be bumped up because of the gauge of the cable, so I can't quite fault Noco for that. However, I have to wonder if the styling elements (the bulbous shape and X pattern, for example) that identify this as a Noco accessory have made this more bulky than it actually needed to be. If your specific use case allows more open access to areas closer to the battery, then this lead may work perfectly. It would probably be ideal under the hood of a car, or even on a cruiser style motorcycle. The length is approximately 19" to the booster portion of the lead, and approximately 21-1/4" with the SAE charger/fused portion attached, at least for the one I received. For reference, the Battery Tender ringed lead, strictly intended for charging only, is listed at 18-1/2" similarly to this Noco piece. I've included a photo comparing a typical Battery Tender connector with what you can expect to receive from Noco.

This is a must for a motorcycle when the battery is buried under plastic. The adapter will work for use of a battery tender too.

This is a very well made pigtail connector. I've had lots of experience with SAE battery connectors, and Lithium jump packs. This is a nice piece that should work 100%.

This noco gbc009 it comes with the eyelets and I fixed to my bike permanently, the cables are quite thick and flexible very useful to jump start when needed. The attachment SAE connector is on the bulky(side) comes with a fuse. Part which I'm unhappy about is the weatherproof cover on the GBC009 cable. It easily comes off and doesn't stay in tightly. It is the only worries, me riding in the rain or washing the bike the connection terminals may get corrode in a long run. Riding 'fjr1300 2017 bike' cable hang outside the battery side for easy access. 4 stars cause of the weatherproof cover.

These cables connect directly to the battery. With the supplied adapter with the SAE connector, a battery tender can be used. Normal battery tender cables won't handle a jump from another battery or from a portable jump unit that this adapter is designed for. I use it with the NOCO Boost Sport GP20. I have not had to use it on my motorcycle yet, however it did jump a V6 Eco Boost Ford motor as the battery was dead. Twice it did it. But in the event I do need to use this unit with my motorcycle, it will plug right in to the end of this adapter, and hopefully fire it right up. The battery connectors are a little bulky. The plastic that surrounds the actual metal connector that gets attached to the battery. But the hole size is about 1/4", so it should fit the bolts on motorcycle batteries with no issues.

I have actually not used this cable, but i do have it connected to my battery and stowed away on the bike. Appears to be great quality

Easy to hook up to your battery if you are going on a long trip. Charge up your NOCO and hit the road for fun. Note: this works with my trickle charger as well.

I noticed the battery on my bike was getting weak so decided to get a jump starter and this pigtail because a lot of stuff has to be removed to get to the battery on the bike. First ride after installing the pigtail the battery went dead. Two minutes later I had the bike fired up and was back on the road. Definitely a great purchase.

Quality is excellent ,I haven't needed to use it yet ,but having used this company's products I have every confidence .

Great product. I can now boost my bike by simply plugging the charger right in to the bike if I need to. No more need to carry the booster cables that came with the booster pack. Awesome. The heavier wire is nice to see, makes sure you get the full charge/boost. Easy to install on my bike. Works great with my NOCO GB 40 booster pack.

Works well, no issues.

If you have a NOCO booster, it makes it even more convenient. It is especially useful on motorcycles where the battery is often a PITA to reach. It plugs directly in the booster and with the SAE adapter, you can still use a battery tender without having to change anything. The only thing I find negative is the size of it. It is quite bulky for motorcycle use. Cars should have no issues.

only problem was that it was not compatible with rest of my noco products so didn't work for my application.
