I found a handy USB socket with an SAE plug end. Not sure if it would work on a 6V system but it does. Built-in voltmeter as well. I already have a hidden SAE cable on my bike to plug it into a charger, so this comes in handy for me when I'm on the road. thought some members might be interested. search on Ebay for "usb to sae adapter"

G'day Cas,
Was wondering about these on our 6V systems. I note that some sellers state voltage display range 0-48V and others state 8-28V, I take it you have the 0-48 item or does it not matter?

Interesting, will it run a Satnav or charge a phone at 6 volts ?

What's the world coming to?...Tell that to a WW2 dispatch rider and he wouldn't believe you!!:laughing: ....Ian

its listed as 12v - 48v. I'm no electrical guru but I figure it regulates to 5.7v so as long as the voltage inbound is more than that, it will still push out 5.7v. Like our Lucas regulators? I first tried to see if it would charge a USB battery pack and all went well, so then I took a chance and tried charging my cell phone. Again, no problem. Hopefully one of our electrical wizards can chime in?

Having a hidden SAE plug is rather handy for leaving a bike on a float charger as well as providing power to USB devices while on the road. the voltmeter is handy for checking the charge of the battery too. A secondary use is as a power supply for a hidden GPS tracker which I think is the best anti-theft device out there.
