cabreco Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share #26 Posted August 3, 2012 Ground issue? Maybe get a ground loop isolator. Or try a Lenmar battery backup. That way it's off the charging system. That's not a bad idea! I was looking to get a Lenmar Solar Powerport for my bugout bag to charge my cell phone in case of emergency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddevilmedic Posted August 3, 2012 Share #27 Posted August 3, 2012 I have one that I cut a hole in to put a standard automotive radio into, youre welcome to that if ya want it. I use the helmet radios now, and have the radio right outta the bike and ordered a new filler panel again. I got it a year ago from partshark but not sure if theyre still available new Brian thanks, but, i was hoping to find one without the hole. i posted about it before, but no replies. i also nee the pocket. id like to have some fairing storage. watertight.

Lunchbox Posted August 3, 2012 Share #29 Posted August 3, 2012 thanks, but, i was hoping to find one without the hole. i posted about it before, but no replies. i also nee the pocket. id like to have some fairing storage. watertight. You could use some ABS plastic, thin rubber stripping and a hinge. Get an oversized Rubbermaid container to fit below. Use some galvanized plumbers' tape to mount it in the hole with some nuts/bolts through the edge of the hole. Use silicone to seal them. Should be a $10 project. Maybe not the cleanest look, but that depends on how OEM you want it to look. Or an enclosure like this: http://www.westfloridacomponents.com/HW204/Electronics+Enclosure+Plastic+Project+Box+with+Tabs+7.31%22+x+3.75%22+x+2.08.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabreco Posted August 11, 2012 Author Share #30 Posted August 11, 2012 Ok so let me tell you what I did. I went the cheap way just to see if it would work out w/o spending $30 I picked up a little Schosche SunVolt solar charger from Ebay http://i.ebayimg.com/t/iPhone-iPod-mp3-Solar-Powered-Battery-USB-Charger-Schosche-SunVolt-Camping-Car-/00/s/NDAwWDQwMA==/$(KGrHqF,!hEE-FdmSisJBP2k9GLywQ~~60_12.JPG http://www.ebay.com/itm/390437868970?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Great little unit, works like a dream. Charges the MP3 while playing with no static & when no sun I can charge it from my aux USB port. All for $8 bucks shipped. Great for a backup charger for phones & GPS too!
