I recently bought several battery charging products to get ready for winter, including a Schumacher SEM-1562A (bought at the local Tractor Supply Co.), the Schumacher EC-25 25' Cable Connector Extension Cord and this extra connector cable.
The charger works great. The extension cable works great. This connector works great as well. But....
I was a bit disappointed in the over all design of this connector, tho. I was expecting it to be the same as the one that came with the charger, but it falls short in at least three ways. It's shorter, the cable is less robust (it may be the same gauge of wire, but it feels flimsy compared to the original and doesn't have as good a plastic sheath around it), and it doesn't have a cover for the plug to keep dirt and grime out. As the point is to leave this attached to the vehicle year round, it seems like the chances to get gunked up are pretty good.
For the price, I think this is a swell product. However, for a couple bucks more (which in this case I grant, is close to 50%) you can get the Battery Tender 081-0069-6 Ring Terminal Harness with Black Fused 2-Pin Quick Disconnect Plug which has none of the drawbacks of this connector that I mentioned above. It's by a different company, but the plugs are identical and it hooks right up fine.
So, in short, this is a fine product that does what it claims but there are better products out there.

Very timely receipt following my order. The Schumacher WM-12 Cable Connector is well made, fits perfectly onto my battery tender, and allows me to maintain the battery on my Harley without having to remove the seat. Thanks a bunch!
