That explains it! I'd been wondering what ya'll were
talking about.

I happen to ride a BMW R1100S  motorcycle with just
such a plug (on a
neat
little bracket). I have an electric vest that I use
when riding in cold
weather. Now that I find myself in frigid Seattle
(well, maybe not
frigid,
but I am from Texas so it is all relative) with a van
with no heat (for
now,
getting ready to install an Eberspracher), maybe I
need to drive around
Seattle with my electric vest plugged in. For that
matter, maybe I
should
just get the whole electric suit.

By the way, if I remember correctly, I believe that
BMW motorcycle
dealers
sell an adaptor that allows you to plug the "little
male plug"
accessories
into a standard automotive-type 12v outlet.

Cheers,
Bruce
