Battery Backup Cable

I am needing to know does the battery backup come with only one cable to connect to a vortech? As I just recently received another vortech and want it connected to the backup as well like my other.

Does ecotech sale the cable, as bulkreef supply does not have one?

Thanks!

I doubt they will as they likely want you to buy multiple. If you search DIY ecotech battery backup you'll find the size of a splitter you'll need in order to feed two vortech's.

They have to have a cable as it has ports for two vortechs.

You should still be able to match the size of the male on each end and order it in eBay for less than 5 bucks. At least you can solve yourself. Support had been pretty solid for me as I run all ecotech. I just called and they answered my questions and helped me troubleshoot
