If anyone has installed a permanent coax outlet on their Tenere, I would like to hear about it. A picture would be even better.
Thanks
Thanks
I have one mounted in an existing hole in the left side of the frame on my 14 ES. Had one there on my 12 also. I use it for my heated jacket liner and also to power my Slime air pump or for the Battery Tender.trasbeck said:If anyone has installed a permanent coax outlet on their Tenere, I would like to hear about it.

No problem. Not shown in the pic is a piece of black sticky back Velcro on the black panel, where I Velcro my Gerbing controller when using my heated liner.trasbeck said:Perfect! I should have thought of that. Thanks!

Hi Brick,Brick said:I like a couple of these grndlb is good but fredz43's is what most interests me.
Fred I tried that with the outlet from powerlet however it's not insulated and blew fuses. How did you insulate it?
Heat Trollers are pulsing the ground side, if the plug outlet is grounded to the frame, it's like having a ground all the time, so no way to pulse it, so it mimics full on and you can't regulate the heat. It wouldn't matter if you were just using a hi/low switch. Some of this may depend on if the controller is plugged into the outlet, or if the controller is between the outlet and bike power, (mounted set up), and the jacket is only being plugged into the co-ax outlet.justbob said:I'm confused by this thread. What difference does it make if the exterior, (ground side) of the panel jack is not insulated ?
It does directly to the negative on the battery, doesnt it ? My coax jack does. If the polarity was reversed, it would be a direct short and blow the fuse as soon as power was applied.
The only Heat troller I have seen that would not cycle was due to reverse polarity.
