[QUOTE="S76, post: 388794, member: 1349"] My Zumo will charge in the cradle even when the Zumo is turned off. (If the cradle is hot wired.) That is one reason I wired mine to a switched source of power on the bike. When the key is switched off the Zumo goes off, that way I don't forget it on. And it comes back on when you start up. In the truck it is plugged into the cig. lighter which is hot all the time so it just charges itself when the truck is off. But the truck has (2) 1000 CCA batteries so who cares. Page 49 of the Zumo owners manual says to charge the Zumo just place it in a powered cradle, or use the A/C adapter. I would rewire the bike to a switched source of power. It doesn't use much power so you could tie into most anything. I think I tied mine into the running lights. [/QUOTE]
