Usb Socket Advice Sought

Give this a try. It only uses a 5amp fuse so higher loads (tyre pump) will pop the fuse.

What about the Thunderbox unit with USB socket lead?

One of my lads has fitted one on his Honda somewhere near the instruments. I do know that it’s an eBay jobbie so you shouldn’t have much trouble finding it.

Have just done a quick search and immediately found three dual outlet sockets all under a tenner.

 

I am interested in this same mod for my T100. I see the following in the fitting instructions for the auxiliary power socket posted above:

"9. Locate the auxiliary power socket wiring
connector which is taped to the main wiring
harness in the area under the fuel tank"

Is that present on a 2022 T100? No need to run a line from the battery up under the tank? Triumph has done that for us? Can anyone describe the specific location of that connector referenced in the fitting instructions?

 

If you go on the triumphinstructions.com website and put the
auxiliary power socket wiring connector part number in you can download the fitting instructions. From the looks of it, it will involve removal of tank and instrument cluster.

For your convenience follow this link where I’ve done this and all you have to do is press or click the union flag to get your download. In the event that the part number is not entered it is A9820115.

I have just tried this and you will need to enter the part number and then click the union flag.

 

Triumph offer a cockpit version too. Just ask them for it.

 

I'm not sure but Ultimate Addons may have a solution.

 

It almost certainly will be, check the date of the Triumph Instructions and which bikes they apply to, you can double check with a dealer as well: Triumph don't change things unless they have to.

I've fitted the Thruxton Cockpit auxiliary power socket to my Street Cup and the connector was there waiting under the tank. I'm fairly sure that socket fits any of the Bonnevilles with double clocks i.e. Speedo and revs.

Not sure that's the solution that @beerkat's looking for though.

 

It surprises me that Triumph doesn't jump all over this and offer a cockpit solution for the T100/120 that is easy to fit and high quality. My guess is that the vast majority of owners want to have power at the cockpit for one thing or another.

 

To be perfectly honest I’d buy a five quid switched double USB socket off of eBay together with an inline fuse and run it straight off of the battery as you probably do for your Optimate connection. You can then site the thing where you want.

 

That's exactly what I did, problem solved.

 

At present I use the OE underseat USB socket and have run a 2m lead to my diy Quadlock mount on the handlebar mount. Have not had any problems with it to date.
