Product Specifications

Key Features

1. Designed for Vehicles with Twin Electrics

This extension lead converter is crafted to connect vehicles equipped with twin electrics (12N/12S).

2. Secure and Protective Connection

The converter is equipped with attached protective lids on the 7-pin plugs to help prevent dust, dirt, and moisture ingress when the plugs are not in use. This helps ensure a reliable connection and longer product life.

3. Legal Requirement Compliance

When towing, it’s legally required that your trailer or caravan’s lights are functional and visible to others on the road. This converter ensures your vehicle complies with road safety laws, enhancing visibility and safety while towing.
