| | Posted : 07 May 2013 - 00:51 Post title : Aux Power Port | | | I recently purchased the Triumph Auxiliary Power Port. This may seem like a stupid question, but what size adaptors will this accept?
I made the assumption that the size was the same as a cigarette lighter. Nope, quite a bit smaller.

Thanks much for the reply. Those looks like they will do the trick.
And after seeing them the old brain made the connection to "powerlet"
Cheers

Sounds like this may be a bit too late for you depending on what kind device(s) you want to power, but figured it still might be good info to post...
I just found and ordered a "ZootFresh - SAE to USB Charger Adapter (SABEUS-1)" at Link
I plan to use it to keep my Android juiced up. The SAE connecter end will hook right into your battery tender cable if you have one and you can run a longish USB cable out to your phone.
It is kinda pricy but it is also small and nicer than having a big cigarette charger thing hanging out. Suppose it'll just be a good idea to unhook it when wet weather is encountered.
Regards,
Paul

No, not too late. I havent' decided on adaptors yet.
The SAE seems the way to go for both the battery tender and a USB charger.
Thanks for the reply and the link.
I love this forum.

| | Posted : 10 May 2013 - 02:58 Post title : Re: Aux Power Port (Re: BluesDrummer) | | | So the Zootfresh thing arrived today. Appears to be nicely made - sturdy feel with a bit of weight to it. Even came in a little felt carrying pouch. Has a red LED on the USB connector end that glows when plugged into my battery tender cable. Connecting the USB to my Android lit up the charging indicator on the phone. So, all appears to be good!
