Lost enough of those.

Neat idea, but I'll wait until they are a lot cheaper.  $50 for a cable adapter that will still crack and fail in the cold after n twists and pulls.  I'll find an alternate. JMO

You're just waiting for the Bluetooth version...

I remember looking at carrying a 12v pocket sized battery in my inner jacket pocket. Like a Lithium power pack.

Then I found an old ad from when Polaris marketed it, some years ago, minus the lithium thing, of course.

I'm convinced hanging 8 feet of wire with a microscopic conductor and 6 (count 'em, 6!) connecters in -25  at 60 mph is not the best of ideas.

Is nobody doing this?

Maybe it's my next big million dollar idea.

Batteries are just a pain.  You forget to charge them, they die mid day, etc.  It would be great if the cords we buy started to use this magnetic connector.  I agree too many connections is not a great idea.  That said tape the redundant ones up like the instructions say and I doubt you will have issues.
