phone charging

[Toad face killah]

Looking for ways to add a phone charging port into my handlebar bag without causing any electrical issues. I know in the past there is a right and wrong way to do it. Any companies you can recommend? I'm tired of my cold phone dying on long rides. I have a matryx slash boost 165 on its way.

In the new dash storage on the Matryx there is a usb you can charge your phone on if you got the 7S display and may be a little warmer in that compartment
If you wanted to route one from that port you could buy a Y USB adapter or a just a cord to run down from behind the dash and up the bars to your bag
Standard guage might not have that usb plug though

You do know there is a usb port you can plug in to the back of the 7s display and keep your phone in the glovebox if you want right? It might be nice to have another one in a handlebar bag though for easier access.

Okay that sounds perfect. I didn't realize there is one in dash compartment with 7S display. that will be perfect.

Thanks for your insight

It’s slick!

it will charge with just the key switch even if you don’t have electric start there is a little battery that powers the 7S gauge so you can plug in to charge without the sled running

Get one of these and put it in a pouch or a sock and put it in the bag with your phone.
It will keep your phone warm and it won't die from the cold.

I wouldn't put it directly in contact with your phone as mine gets hot enough that on low you can barely hold it barehanded.

Worry more about riding than taking hero pics and vids to post on social media.

Perhaps he was wanting to know this because he uses his phone for a GPS . . or just prefers to keep it fully charged . . ?
I can see where being able to plug in a phone for charging would be nice on long / cold rides, or in emergency situations.

Ken 65 I don't have any social media. you should stop assuming. Phones are good to be able to call when **** happens. Cant make an emergency phone call if the phone is dead. and yes phones are good for GPS too

So here's a question, I have elecrtic start on my 650 RMK
Can I use my phone's car charger adapter and wire it directly to the battery. ??

 

[sno*jet]

did they finally wire up a charge port from the factory for youguys along with them innovative new drivers? ?

I found a product called "adrenalink" on Amazon Canada that allows me to keep my phone topped.

I ride a 2-stroke, blue smoke with no electric start and its an AC electrical system
so its the perfect add-on.

Works great.
