Quad Lock phone mount and charge port?

I installed an Eklipes Cobra power source on my bike. It has 2 power ports, a cigarette-lighter style and a USB. Very simple, as it uses a standard SAE battery pigtail -- what you'd use to attach a trickle charger. Hook it to the battery, run the wire to wherever you mount the unit, you're done. This unit has a switch on it, so you can use it whether the bike's running or not -- but I always switch it off whenever the bike's not running.

Thanks so much, wouldn't have a pic or 2 where you mounted it?

Don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but I wouldn't run the quad lock on this bike. I installed one, it's actually still on my Z650, but it destroys the phones. I had an Iphone 7 and after about a week the camera was ruined by vibration. I assumed it was just from the phone being older and going through **** and back on adventures. So I went out and got a brands new Iphone XR, half hour ride and the camera was toast was the vibration. It messes with the autofocus, so sometimes the camera will work and others it can't focus and will grind. Maybe this doesn't happen on non Iphones? And maybe the Ram type mounts have enough rubber between the phone and handlebar to limit the vibration, but the Quadlock absolutely destroys them.

hook up a battery tender they make an USB adapter to charge your phone you can use that while riding and the battery tender when not riding... https://www.amazon.com/Battery-Tend...9Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

How did you guys snake the cable from under the seat all the way to the front without it sticking out? Pics would be much appreciated

On some bikes you might have to remove the tank, or at least loosen it enough to be tilted up. But so far I've installed power ports on three different bikes, and on each one I was able to remove the seat and snake the wire forward from the battery under the tank, securing it to the frame with nylon cable ties at strategic spots.

Interestin, I’ll have to try it out but good to know that it’s doable without opening up the side panels or tank
