Kury USB charger
Hoping someone can help out with this. I am in the US in a couple of weeks time and was keen to lay my hands on the Kury USB charger, as per this link
http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/4206/usb-power-source
Problem is, everyone seems to have stocked out and, although I order 2 a couple of months ago it looks like they will not be available.
Are there any decent alternatives. In particular, I am interested to hear about the devices which are proven for charging iPhones.
Thanks

hmmm,, my usb charger ( in the tour pak) cost $8 at autozone ( auto parts chain store)..similar at walmart ( asda).
it charges my ipod/iphone/camera etc.
I also have a small 12 v usb plug which cost about $7. I used to plug that into the cigar lighter before I installed the isimple 30 pin iphone plug
so 3 alternatives, under $30 for all 3

Prefer to go direct to USB rather than building a Christmas tree of plugs and adaptors

Griffin PowerJolt SE Car Charger for iPhone and iPod, 1 Amp. Available on amazon.co.uk right now for Ł9.79, mate.
1 amp is quick carge for iPhone, and it's a short charger so doesn't hit tank when used in cigar socket on fairing. Curly wire doesn't get in the way either. Also long enough for use in pannier if you've got an auxiliary socket rigged.
I use my iPhone for sat nav and tunes, and I've used this for a year without dramas. If you want a generic USB type charger, just make sure the output is at least 0.75 amp if you want to charge iPhone or iPad.

your SG doesn't have a lighter socket? ( next you are gonna tell me it doesn't run on diesel)
this is similar t what i have in the tour pak, although mine is 2 x usb, 2 x 12 vdc
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Pyle-PL12V...arger/17242492
cut the plug off and wired it to the "run" light circuit. my stuff in the T/P charges as I run down the road- and as noted above I use the isimple to charge and get audio to my stereo- and my ipod touch is mounted where I can see and use the display
