THE \"PIGTAIL\", WHICH IS THE BATTERY CONNECTOR WIRE SUPPLIED BY SUNFORCE, CONNECTS TO THE VEHICLE BATTERY AT ONE END AND TERMINATES IN A STANDARD SAE CONNECTOR AT THE OTHER (THIS SAE CONNECTOR THEN CONNECTS TO ANOTHER SAE CONNECTOR WHICH IS WIRED TO THE SOLAR PANEL).  THE PROBLEM IS THAT, ON THE PIGTAIL SUPPLIED BY SUNFORCE, THE BARE UNPROTECTED METAL TERMINAL OF THE SAE CONNECTOR IS WIRED TO THE POSITIVE TERMINAL OF THE VEHICLE BATTERY, NOT THE NEGATIVE. SIMILAR PIGTAILS SUPPLIED BY ELECTRICAL TRICKLE CHARGER MANUFACTURERS SUCH AS YUASA AND BATTERY TENDER HAVE THIS UNPROTECTED METAL TERMINAL ON THE SAE CONNECTOR PROPERLY WIRED TO THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL OF THE VEHICLE BATTERY.    IT IS COMMON PRACTICE FOR MOTORCYCLE OWNERS TO HAVE THESE PIGTAILS PERMANENTLY WIRED TO THEIR MOTORCYCLES FOR BATTERY CHARGING PURPOSES (AND ALSO TO PERHAPS RUN ACCESSORY EQUIPMENT SUCH AS A GPS).    ALTHOUGH THE SUNFORCE PIGTAIL IS FUSED, ACCIDENTAL CONTACT BETWEEN THE UNPROTECTED METAL SAE TERMINAL AND THE METAL FRAME OF THE MOTORCYCLE COULD CAUSE A SPARK. IF THE MOTORCYCLE IS BEING REFUELED AT THAT TIME, GIVEN THE LIKELY CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE SPARK TO THE GASOLINE TANK, AN EXPLOSION IS POSSIBLE.    ON MY MOTORCYCLE I HAVE CUT AND SOLDERED THE WIRES ON BOTH THE PIGTAIL AND THE SOLAR PANEL WIRE, SWITCHING THEM AROUND SO THAT THE BARE METAL TERMINAL ON THE PIGTAIL'S SAE CONNECTOR IS PROPERLY AND SAFELY WIRED.    I HAVE ALSO ENCOUNTERED THIS SAME SITUATION ON SUNFORCE'S 5 WATT SOLAR PANELS, WHICH ARE SOLD FOR BATTERY MAINTENANCE ON CARS AND TRUCKS. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"9999","productMake":"UNKNOWN","productModel":"UNKNOWN","manufacturer":"UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER"}]}]}
