OptiMate TM68 Weatherproof Cigarette Lighter Socket 12V

About this Optimate OptiMate TM68 Weatherproof Cigarette Lighter Socket 12V

Turn your bike’s battery connection into a versatile power source with the OptiMate TM68 Cigarette Lighter Socket, available now at On Yer Bike. This essential accessory is designed for motorcyclists and ATV riders who need a reliable 12V DC outlet for touring or agricultural work. By simply plugging this 90cm lead into your existing under-seat TM71 battery lead, you create a standard "car-size" Ø21mm power socket, perfect for running a wide range of accessories while on the move.

The TM68 is built to withstand the rigours of outdoor use, featuring a heavy-duty weatherproof rubber cap that seals the socket when not in use, protecting it from road spray, dust, and moisture. Whether you need to power a GPS unit, charge your smartphone, or run a tyre compressor for roadside repairs, this lead provides a stable and secure connection. The internal locking slots are specifically designed to keep your accessory plugs from vibrating loose on bumpy B-roads or rough terrain, ensuring your devices stay powered throughout your journey.

At On Yer Bike, we recommend the TM68 for its robust construction, featuring 18AWG (0.82mm²) thick-core copper cabling for maximum electrical efficiency. It is rated for use in extreme conditions, remaining flexible at temperatures as low as -40°C, making it a dependable tool for year-round UK riders. Please note: This lead is compatible with the older white TM (KET) connectors found on AccuMate and pre-2012 OptiMate leads. For newer black SAE connectors, you will require the O6 (SAE76) version instead.
