  • IdeaForge Bike charger set up help

    Hi,
    I recently purchased ideaForge's Bike Charger which is a mobile charger for bikes.
    According to the instructions, I should connect the positive of the given cable to a connector from the on/off/lock unit and the negative to any metal part of the bike.
    How do I identify this connector on the bike? I own a Honda Unicorn.
    Please share any tips or instructions you know...

    Thanks

    Regards,
    Vignesh G

      For this you will have to disassemble the lock-set assy. and require a wiring diagram of the bike's wiring harness as well.

      From what i understand, you will need to connect it to the acc/ignition wire ( so that the charger works, only when the key is inserted, and turned to acc position ).

      Alternately, you can install a switch and a low power fuse ( 1-5A ), and connect the charger directly to the positive of the battery, and ground the black ( negative ), on the chassis of the bike ( this would require you to connect the black wire to a bolt, screw or any other metal part directly in contact with the chassis ).

      This will require you to switch the charger on/off manually, but will atleast prevent cutting or modification of the bike's original wiring harness.
