Also wired another Hella/Bosch/Din plug direct to the battery with online fuse.
To charge phone /Scala Bluetooth headset. To safe having the ignition on..
Added an extra cable tie as 2 wasn't enough...

Hi Ash,

Where did you get the extra socket?

Cheers,

Ian.

PS are you adding sleeving around the wires to the battery?

I wanted a constant live, not via ignition.
If I'm out all day using my MPV player on my garmin 395LM into my helmet via my Scala it goes flat especially if garmin is routing as well.
So i wanted the capability of charging without ignition on..

Not bad fuel consumption, considering I was cruising on make A & B roads with a couple of short dual carriageways.
Between 50 - 80 MPH
