I'm adding a combo USB/12V DC cigarette lighter outlet to my C10. I'm wondering the best way to run switched power to this accessory so that it's automatically turned off when the bike is off. For my other bike I used taillights. I'd love to hear advice on what works best for this purpose.
From reading the manual it sounds like there are two pairs of accessory wiring options, but they are both directly wired to the battery. I want to be sure that if I accidentally leave my phone or GPS plugged in it won't drain the battery.
For reference, I'm installing this one if it fits:

I'm thinking that this would be great located inside the left storage pocket in the fairing. When something needs to charge it can go in the fairing pocket or run a cord out to a device.
All advice on how to accomplish this goal without draining my battery would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
