Title: 12 volt power options
Post by Greg on 08/11/12 at 06:56:12

I know there are a lot of power outlet options from cheap to expensive. I really like this one from Kuryakyn. What do you use?

I kinda like that one but it is a tad on the expensive side. What I use for charging my phone is hard wired directly into the bike, I got it off ebay for about $15. It's got the spiral stretch cord and 5 volt regulator built into it and much smaller then conventional cell chargers.

Me too did the weather tight from the car parts store. Didn't trust the sticky pad so I did two nylon wire ties cinched down tight to the bar under the seat but where I could reach it without looking. Hardwired directly to the battery so I could use it as place to hook up jumper cables and battery chargers if needed. Worked like a champ, and as mentioned above it was cheap.

I just can't justify the money for pretty one, so I ended up with a weatherproof one from Walmart. Add a weatherproof fuse and we hit $15. Zip tied it to the bar under my seat. Seems to work well.

Still I think a chrome cigarette lighter on a bike would look and feel cool to use and be definitely a bold statement. :D

That first one is definitely for the person that can't ever seem to have enough stuff attached to their bike.
