Installed an Amplink PDM60 on my bike to help control power. The idea is that when you turn the key, you can have all of your electronic goodies turn on a few seconds later, so all of the battery amps go towards starting the bike, as well as ensuring that all power is shut off when you turn the bike off. I have a cigarette lighter outlet insight the frunk installed, as well as one in the black plastic piece just to the right of the frunk, underneath my handlebars so I can power by GPS/phone, while safely charging GoPro/Insta360X batteries or even my phone if it is raining and I have my phone in the frunk.
Anyway, it uses bluetooth and you configure the power via an app on your phone: set it and then forget it. I have the trigger specified as ignition, a 5 second delay, maximum amps to each port set to 10 amps. When I hit the "test" toggle switch, the ports go hot; I've plugged in USB adaptors into the cigarette lighter outlets and I can see the LED lights on both light up. Therefore amplink understands that there is something on ports 4 & 5 and will successfully send power for the test. However, once I toggle the test switch off and start the bike, power is never sent to the ports. I've made sure I didn't instead chose 5 minute delay instead of 5 seconds, I've ridden for 20 minutes on the bike and power is never sent. Anyone have the same experience? Frustrating because I leave for a 6 day trip in a few days and I have no power at this point.
