Any battery stick supplier for the Civic Hybrid?

HA makes a great product. You'll want to buy the "discharge ready" version. It is wired for a future feature that will automate the charge/discharge process. They also have a single and dual bulb discharger that works well and connects directly to the pack harness.

I built a dual bulb discharger over the weekend. Spent a few bucks on 2 ceramic lamp holders and used a coupon for a free multi meter from harbor freight. Had some extra 14-2 wire laying around also. Then mounted it all to a 2x4. Tested it in an outlet and "voila". I was thinking about making my own charger unit thanks to S Keith or buying one from Hybrid Automotive. Anyone know where to get the black connector piece for the end of the discharger? I really didn't want to drop $50 on their discharger.

Not sure about the housing that goes over that plug, but you can find it in the Mouse catalog. If it's a nine pin connector, the male and female ends are here:

There is a $200 special tool for crimping the pins, but it can be done effectively with needle-nosed pliers if you're very careful.
