hopz Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Curious if anyone has a source for a Powerlet Plug that has a 5 volt output in the form of a USB socket... want to charge iPhone while on the bike. Ideas? Link to comment
Tri750 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I use the Powerlet brand PAC043 and AAC007 on the dash outlet on my RT. It gives me a full size female outlet for my Garmin car kit plug and the USB for the IPhone. A newer, more direct plug is thier PAC043, but only USB. You want quality? You have to pay for it.

szurszewski Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 According to powerlet.com, the adapter I linked to with the USB ports is PAC-069 - PAC-043 appears to be their powerlet to cigarette adapter (which they should really have a better picture of showing both ends, and which I'm failing to post a pic of). Here is the powerlet.com page. Link to comment

Tri750 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 My mistake, I typed 043 in both descriptions. The 043 is the one I have when using 2 components. The 069 is the direct adapter from Euro (BMW) to USB. Note on using the 069, Powerlet had a few returned as defective until they realized customers were not pushing the adapter in fully. I mean it has to be ooomphed in until it clicks. Otherwise, it will seem to want to fall right out. Link to comment
lkraus Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 A Powerlet to USB adapter will probably work, but I'd avoid any combination that includes a auto-style cigarette lighter socket. I've used a couple different variations and the usb adapter invariably vibrates loose. I finally gave up and wired a usb socket direct to the battery. Does not draw any measurable current when not in use. About $15-20 on Ebay or Amazon. Link to comment
Coinneach Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Like this? From Revzilla That's the one I have. Good little farkle, but it does tend to work loose. Link to comment
