Water proof power plug connected directly to the battery.  Includes adapters for USB, cigarette and SAE for battery tender.

Careful the USB is a 5 v outlet power drain all the time. Will run your battery down if left sitting to long. If you keep it on bat tender should be no problem. I have one and pull the fuse when not using it. Will rewire through switch when
I get to it. Drained my batt in 5 days wouldn't start.

Yep, I had this happen on my old valk.  Battery drained down so much the lights barely came on.  Learned my lesson there.  Next time it goes on a switched power wire.

The wires for the fog lights are right there.  Hook it to that.

Could I power an iPhone while the bike is running?

Of course, but you don't need that expensive usb adapter.  Go to eBay, and buy one there.  It will only be @ $4, and you will probably be able to get the same one.
