I have been looking for a solution for some time for electrical supply to Gps,iPod, Cellphone and intercom etc. Each one would seem to need its own dedicated electrcal supply and you could end up with an array of handlebar mounts that would look ridiculous.
I enquired about the electrified Trip QL tank bag (5l - 7 l) from SW Motech and Adventurer arranged delivery and installed it for me. The installation of the electrics is something I would leave to a professional.
I could not photgraph the installation process but this is how the completed system looks.
The installed electrified tank ring:
The tank bag fitted:
Tank bag showing 2 x electrical connectors Hella type and cigarette lighter type
Tank bag expanded to 7 litres
The bag allows for a Gps and mapholder attachments which I am waiting for.
I can now easily remove all the expensive gadgets which could otherwise be stolen and carry them with me. A small investment when you think of the cost of your cellephone,gps,iPod,camera and intercom system
The pricing of the bag and installation is detailed below.
Daypack II - R896.72
Power socket BMW - R713.59
Map holder - R129.96
Dual Power plug adaptor R264.48
Bracket for GPS - R388.58
Shipping - R65.00
Labour to fit - R150-00
