How many accessories...

[Streetdoctor]

Can my '05 take? I recently did the 8 pole power strip mod from FJRtech. Right now I have heated grips, GPS, and the 12V accessory socket. I'd like to add some extra driving lights, and a powered tank bag to charge my phone. Would using everything all at once cause a problem? Chances are I'll never use the 12v outlet but I don't want to remove it since the hole is drilled.

Check the Bin-o-facts for specifics, but the short answer is yes, with monitoring. I run all that and more, but have kept an eye on the battery voltage to know how much "stuff" I can run at the same time. A Datel, Escort Radar detector set to volts, or some other type of voltage read out is best. I learned I can run my Soltek HID or heated gear for both me & the Mrs., but not all at the same time.

Most of the items you have listed don't take a lot of juice. Heated grips and driving lights will add the most load. Consider using LED driving lights to save wattage.

Lots of folks here have GEN Is and are running much more than you w/o any problems.
