Can you get a constant 12v source on a Zero?
SwampNut:
Zero says you cannot connect anything to the 12v battery, but it's unclear why, or whether something with a very tiny draw would affect it. I want to power a dashcam that wants 12v constant plus 12v switched. Any ideas?
Specter:
Here's another thread that is going on now in the forum, that may or may not be of help to you.

SwampNut:
Thanks, adding a small battery pack is my last-ditch option. The SR/S already has connections for heated gear and ignition-switched accessories, that part is fine. But I can't find any constant 12v power.
TheRan:
The gen 3 bikes have a separate 12v battery, apparently located under the seat, so you can just wire to that. From the images I could find it has threaded terminals so just crimp some ring terminals onto the dashcam wires.
