12V DC Hardwire Power Lead for Most GME Fixed Mount Radios Bare Wire Ends for Battery or Fuse Panel Connection Product Overview The GME LE09 is a 12V DC power lead for permanent hardwire installation of most GME fixed mount radios. Unlike cigarette lighter leads (such as the LE026), the LE09 terminates in approximately 15mm of stripped red and black wire intended for direct connection to a vehicle battery, fuse panel, or DC power supply for a permanent installation. This is the standard power lead included in the box for most GME fixed mount radios, and is available as a replacement or spare part. The LE09 is not suitable for the TX4600 or marine-style radios. Confirm with GME if your radio is in the excluded category.

The LE09 is a permanent hardwire lead — it terminates in bare stripped wire for direct connection to a battery, fuse panel, or DC supply. The LE016 and LE026 terminate in cigarette lighter plugs for temporary vehicle socket connections. The LE09 is for permanent radio installations; the lighter leads are for portable or temporary use. Why does the LE09 have stripped wire ends rather than a plug? Stripped bare wire ends allow the lead to be connected directly to ring terminals, blade terminals, or lugs at the vehicle battery or fuse box — the standard method for permanent automotive radio installations. This creates a secure, vibration-resistant connection without the mechanical limitation of a cigarette lighter plug. Why is the LE09 excluded from TX4600 and marine radios? The TX4600 and marine-style GME radios use different power connector types or have different power requirements. The TX4600 uses the LE016 lead instead. Marine radios use dedicated marine installation wiring. Using the LE09 on an excluded model risks an incorrect connection — confirm the correct power lead for your radio with GME. Is the LE09 included with new GME radios? Yes — the LE09 is described as the standard power lead included in the box for most GME fixed mount radios. This listing provides a replacement if the original is misplaced, damaged, or a spare is needed. What voltage and fusing should be used with the LE09? The LE09 is rated for 12V DC. For a permanent installation, the lead should be protected with an in-line fuse of the appropriate rating for the radio being installed. Confirm the recommended fuse size with the radio's installation manual or with GME.
