Charger for Sat nav
 
Hi
I am trying to work our a cheap charging system for the Tom Tom Rider.

My bike (R1200GS) has a mount for the sat nav(non charging).

Instead of buying another mount with charger Costing (£45 + P & P + fitting cost) can I use the DIN socket in the bike to charge the sat nav on the go via the electrical charging socket at the bottom of the sat nav.

Please advice

Thanks

Yes

When the dock failed on numerous occasions when I was using TT I ended up just plugging in a 12v on the bike and plugging it into the bottom flap

Just he careful in heavy rain as once that flap is open it can ingest water

I would double check to see if that input is 12 or 5v. My memory is not as good and this was back in 2010 when I did so

I do not have access to my cables so I cannot give exact data, but it can be done easily

Sorry for the ramble
