Description
The housing on my Battery Tender +12V to +5V voltage converter had turned to "goo." This gadget has a polarized 2 wire connector on the +12V input side (typically found on motorcycles) and a Type A USB connector on the +5V output side. I use it to charge my phone on the bike.
I tried a couple of home remedies for cleaning off the goo. But none of them worked so I created this replacement housing. It's pretty easy to print. Some supports are needed.
I removed the electronics from the original package and installed them in my new housing. Then I just super glued the two halves together.
