I have a usb terminal jack that plugs into the battery trickler harness under the seat. Then I ran an IPhone cord under tank to handlebar with a little slack. Phone is mounted in RAM X mount. Plug phone in and I’m off and running with Google Maps in Satellite mode with 3 D on. Was about $25 for cord and usb trickle adapter...maybe less.
Install is at this link.

I have the battery tender USB plugged into the pigtail under my seat. I used to plug the phone or sena in under my seat and let it charge.
Only reason I didn't wanna run the phone aire to the handbars is theyre not water proof. So I figure 1 or 2 rains and I would have to reqire a new 1

That's actually a pretty darn smart use of space and a really cool idea, but I'm too cheap to spend $73 plus $25 for shipping on this.
Yea if it was 45$ I probably woulda bought it to be the guinea pig already lol.
Thats why I like it is the use of space thats otherwise useless. I dont like clamping accessories all over my handlebar other than my phone holder.
I messaged them to ask for photos of the wires and how they install. Might be worth running it to the accessory power behind the left side cover since I have an extra terminal now.

Every phone mount I've looked at recently has a an optional charger you can add to it. I don't know if yours does, but it might be worth checking. Then you wouldn't be adding something to the bar.
Re: USB ports pointing downward. A) I have enough problems plugging in the right way the first time and when I'm looking right at the port and B) I've ridden through HUGE rainstorms on multiple occasions without damaging my horizontally mounted USB ports (and I don't have a fairing).

This box doesn't mount to the bars. It mounts right ontop of your Brake Master cylinder cover. So otherwise its space that is not being utilized.
The ports face you (away from the wind and direct rain) and have rubber plug covers when you're not using it or for inclement weather.
There are obvious other/cheaper ways but I think this is the only device that utilizes a mounting location that is otherwise not used.

There are people commenting without reading, apparently. It's called "super charger" because it's putting out 3 amps, which is enough to fast charge a tablet, let alone your phone or gps. And it's made in Korea, where they don't use slave labor and stolen patents, so the cost of the product will reflect that. Stop comparing costs of goods produced by Chinese prison labor, it's not healthy.
Agree with above posters, it's a very clever design that doesn't clutter handlebar real estate. Going to order one, let me know if you want a review.
Yes, please, LikeAfox, a review would be good.
I messaged them to see if I could trade getting 1 for an honest review/install video since noone really seems to have heard of them.
