Battery tender to USB

[jbauto3]

Does anybody know if they make an adapter that would plug into my usb plug & allow it to connect to my battery tender

If you're wanting to keep your battery charged by plugging your tender into the USB plug, forget it. USB is 5 volts and the battery is 12+ volts. The USB is powered through a voltage reducer chip. There is no way to reverse it. Not a workable idea.

If the 12 Volt plug in your rear storage compartment is always powered, just get a cigarette adapter. If the pug is not powered all of the time, check your owner's manual and it will explain how to move the fuse for it from one spot to another. This winter will be my fourth winter using one, and it works like a charm.

Here's the 12 Volt adapter. Much easier than clips on the battery.

I've used one of these for years and works great. Just remember if your 12v plug is NOT hot all the time, there's a jumper you move on your fuse block to make it always hot. Check your manual for details.
