I have the plug that attaches to my battery for the trickle charger and was wondering if this female reciver that is always connected to the battery would accept the male part of heated jacket? Any idea?
Yes it should. Your trickle charger lead probably has a fuse. All of my Battery Tender® leads are fused on the bike side at 7.5A. A 90W jacket will draw around the same.I have the plug that attaches to my battery for the trickle charger and was wondering if this female reciver that is always connected to the battery would accept the male part of heated jacket?

I'd second a separate lead and appropriate fuse and a switch. My Eclipse vest has a SAE connector along with an inline On/Off switch with no other temperature control. But it's 50yr old.Consider putting a separate SAE fused plug and a switch to run your heated jacket. There are times when they get too warm and you need to turn it off for a bit.
I got one of these to connect my heated gears' coax connector to a separate fused SAE lead as a coax connector is much easier to deal with. Coax connectors will generally separate easily if you should walk away without first disconnecting. DAMHIKT.There is a Coax to SAE plug adapter
Well, that comment confirms my thought that the Eclipse heated vests were one of the best ever made, as I still have mine after 40 years! Had to replace the included wire and switch once. The heated collar is wonderful! Shame that company went out of business, but maybe that was because no one ever needed to buy another one!My Eclipse vest has a SAE connector along with an inline On/Off switch with no other temperature control.
