I've located the extra power socket in back of my nacelle on my RKC103 and am interested in wiring a lighter to it to charge cell phone (I have a lighter/charger for my phone already). I've checked with Powerlet, and they seemed only interested in selling me their proprietary stuff and were not helpful. The plug that is behind the Nacelle has two wires; a black wire, and an orange/white wire, and terminates in a squarish, white connector, probably spade/female. I'm a wiring newby. Can anyone tell me the name/type of this connector, so I can assemble the right pieces to make this connection? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you're describing the pn#73102-96WE two position pin housing.

 

Thanks, Dawg, I believe you are right. Is there a male version that I can crimp onto a lighter socket? Appreciate any advice. My bonehead parts guys here are useless.

73152-96WE two position socket housing. You'll also need two 73191-96 receptacle contacts to M-crimp onto the wire ends.

 

I just crimped two female spade connectors on those wires, and then two males on the accessory (my GPS). A hell of alot cheaper than buying from HD.

 

Man! Thanks Dawg, parts #'s and all! Help greatly appreciated.

Last question for anyone. Any suggestions on where to get a handlebar mount for my 1" bars that would seat a lighter would also be greatly appreciated. I've looked around, and the only one I found was powerlet, but it fits 7/8" bars.

Powerlet fits 7/8 to 1" so you're good to go

PKT-090-54-B Powerbar Plus 7/8" To 1" Black Anodized
PKT-090-54-C Powerbar Plus 7/8" To 1" Chrome

 

Thanks again. Saw this, but don't want to spend $130 for the set-up. Going to try the Emgo lighter/mount combo with the connections you recommended first. See if the $20 solution works.
