New pigtail plug

Have you ever unhitched but forgotten to unplug your pigtail? Nah, you'd never do that. But I did. And when I pulled my truck forward, I pulled the pigtail socket out of the truck bed. Not all the way, but enough to break off the mounting ears. It was kind of a pain to replace.

But with the new plug and socket pictured above, that won't happen again. Oh, you might still forget to unplug, but the plug is held in the socket with a magnet, so it's supposed to just pop out. It looks like it should be easy to plug in too. If any of its seven male prongs get bent, the traditional pigtail plug can be kind of difficult to use. Think I'll put one of these sets on my wish list.

The product has only recently been announced, so it's not on the retail market yet. But the press release promises it the first half of this year. Info at http://www.ezconnector.com/
