My Garmin draws less than 1/10 of an amp. ie you can probably put it most anywhere. The power cable that came with my unit had a fuse in it & I think I clipped it onto one of the 2 20 amp fuses that are on the bike. The power is on all the time. I'm going to change things once the warranty runs out on the bike to being powered up only when the key is on. (I'm going to change the headlight that it only lites when the engine is running.) Send me a private mail message and I'll send you some pictures and a diagram.
