I have a 800 mah charger for the EZ start wand.

I need the "pigtail" / adapter whatever ya wanna call it. To make it plug into my hump pack.

The "correct" humpack charge rate is 750-1000 mah, so I am sure the charger is fine.


I need to know what the wire is called? and maybee even where to get it?

LHS is 2 hours away. Not worth the drive for a $5 part.
 
If you are using a stock style "overnight" charger that is not going to work very well. Problem is if that is not a "Smart" charger or a charger that detects the voltage of the battery and self adjust to charge at the correct voltage you will be charging your hump pack at too high of a voltage and you will end up killing it. You have to look at the voltage AND amperage. You can't charge a 6 volt hump pack at 7.4 volt and expect it to last very long. Sucks I know.....
Now as far as pigtails are concerned I have built a ton of them for different applications. All you need is a soldering iron and ensure you get polarities correct.
