does a gadget exist that can be purchased that can run several electrical items from yer battery, such as radar detector, heated grips etc.?

accesssable and/or mounted on the bike somewhere for easy access to turn the supply on and off?


i already have an alarm installed and a hardwire for a radar detector and things are getting a bit cluttered under the seat!

im no electrical whizz, far from it, but i can follow instructions as long as they are written in laymans terms.

thanks guys



oops.....bloody spelling!

Yeup, they certainly exist.

Three main brands come to mind, the Touratech TPS-15:

And the Centech and the Fuzeblock:

I have two Touratech TPS-15 (yes... I err, kinda filled up the first a bit too easily :blink:) and they have a trigger wire. Essentially, they only come alive when the bike goes live, and they shut down when the bike shuts down, so the battery is safe.

Check out Eastern Beaver... made by a Canadian in Japan. VERY informative website too.

I have an Eastern beaver PC-8 unit on my Strom. It has 8 outputs - 2 live all the time and 6 switched. My GPS is live all the time while my grips and accessory socket are switched. Need some more gadgets...
