Thank you for the ideas guys. In my previous search for threads on the topic I did come across the suggestion for using the trailer adapter and using a plastic sleeve to protect the wires. My trailer adapter is only a 7amp circuit so that will not quite do. I have a weeding attachment that I receive later in May that is requiring a 10 amp circuit. In sizing this I looked at some other uses and decided a 15 amp circuit could serve some other purposes. For starters I will wire the outlet to the battery with an inline fuse to keep it as a hot connection regardless of ignition on or off. At the same time I will double check to see if there is a slot available in the fuse box with the idea if I change my mind I can add there. Alternatively, for ignition switch on, I like the relay idea as well. Since my Landini is a narrow orchard/vineyard tractor the number of places to put the outlet without being squeezed is limited but I think I have a nice little place next to the seat. That way, based on another post, if my spouse decides to do some winter work I can get her those plug-in motorcycle socks, pants, etc to stay toasty warm. Thank you again.......Cheers, Gary
