Accessory Wiring (GPS)

[Greg B]

I just picked up this off of CL.

I'm trying to determine the best way to wire in the charging mount.
I suppose the + side should be connected to a switched 12V supply, but which one I am unsure of.
Think there would be any problem just connecting directly to the battery? Other than it remaining powered all the time?
TIA

Hey that looks really good. Much slicker than my 60cs. I just ran mine off the acc side and fused it with an inline holder. What is the white block stuck on the windscreen?

[Greg B]

Thanks, I'm not crazy about the RAM handle bar mount, but it will work until I make something better.
Did you come off of the fuse block for your 12V supply?
The thing on the windscreen is a transponder for the local toll roads. Makes it so I don't have to stop at a toll booth, and can just ride on by without slowing down.

Yes, I came off the back of the fuse block, I think it was orange. Which I think is the switched power.
I have so far been able to avoid the only toll bridge around.
