This topic may be covered in another thread, however, I couldn't find it. Anyway I remember reading that some members are mounting the outlet in the storage compartment.
If the compartment leaks water past a protrution, it may not be the best place to mount the outlet since whatever is plugged into the outlet will have to come out of the compartment via the weather stripping.
I've used the products from Powerlet Products - Rugged power outlets, cables and electronics on my past 2 bikes and can attest to the quality of build. They're waterproof and well made. My R1200C had a powerlet outlet mounted to a frame member. The seal kept it completely dry. I mounted a powerlet to the upper fairing on my MTS1100 and it never leaked.
Just wanted to voice my concerns about mounting location and relate my experience using a powerlet accessory outlet.
