If im not mistaken I have seen several people here mention about a plug in to keep water and dirt outside of the olug in. Was wondering if someone could link me

Thanks!! I wonder if I could find one of those locally around here in Canada at like the source or something

They work great!! I also give them away with my fenders ;)

I haven't totally seen the need for it yet, unless your riding a lot around moisture. I lost mine riding around tall grass. I was thinking about coming up with glueing a small string or fishing line to it and tying it to the board so it's not so easy to lose. I do own a handful... But, my point was, the time I needed it was the time im losing it.

Just make sure you get the right gender. I was having a hard time getting the dummy plug in and then realized I accidentally ordered the NDF (female) instead of NDM (male). D'Oh!
I guess now I have a protector for my charging plug ... :)

If you fancy getting handy then a plug can be made out of a piece of hose, spliced and sandwiched between 2 washers, 4 small bolts and a stopper. Works great.

Jimmers Ill have to give that a go. Seems like an easy and cheap way to get those done up
-
@juts That seems cheap and easy? You can buy a handful of dummy plugs from that link they gave you and have them shipped to you for less than $5.

I made a 3d printed XLR plug while stuffing around with ideas for a fender.

Just another option for those with a 3d printer.
