[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1354562, member: 19880"] Key on - at least for a Gen II Don't know about 2013+ but suspect it is the same. Edit: Although I have an unswitched outlet on my bike, I generally use a portable lithium ion battery pack to keep electronics charged - tablet, phone, camera, Bluetooth speakers, camp light etc. Advisable if you are doing a couple of days of camping without riding to recharge battery. You can get a small battery that can handle a couple of cell phone charges or go with a larger one that comes with booster cables (and capable of starting your motorcycle). These are about the size of a largish paperback and can get you going in case of a battery failure or something as dumb as leaving your ignition on by accident. These also have capacity for multiple recharges of any of your normal electronics. With an inverter, it can also power a 110V AC device for a short time if current requirements aren't too high. I have a couple of the lower capacity packs (deck of cards size) but am buying a large capacity lithium ion "booster pack" unit this year. [/QUOTE]
