Let's face it and not beat around the bush. As a bunch of motorcycle riders we all carry electronic gadgets that need to be charged. And nowadays charging our devices is done more and more via the USB port on our computer, or with special USB chargers. The European Commission has even told mobile phone manufacturers to start using only micro-USB connections for their chargers.
This means that out iPhone, Android, Blackberries, GPS, iPod, etc need to be charged, or just use continuous electrical juice to function. And since motorcycles usually have a nice 12V power supply, you'd say that it would be great to plug in one of your gadgets into the 12V system. But for that you need to special "converter", and that is what we propose as useful Christmas gift.
The Burns USB Weatherproof Power Socket allows you to simply connect the USB power socket to your motorcycle's 12V system, or alternatively use the optional 12V power plug to plug into an accessory plug on your bike (if you have one). This way you have a power plug into which you can plug any USB power charger cable, and it's rain proof.
You can get several optional extras with this device, like rubber seals, longer cables, etc, so check the site for the extras.
Price: US$24.00
