12v supply
« on: March 25, 2019, 03:10:04 AM »

Hi all,

Did anyone picked 12V somewhere on the energica to connect an accessory?

I bought an oiler to lubricate my chain and it needs a 12V supply

Allready tried to pick the plate light supply but it seems that the bike detects that something is wrong and cut the alimentation of the plate light...

If someone have the electric map of the bike it would be great help :)

Thanks

Try the USB plug. That is what I have used.

Two problems with the usb :
- it's 5V if i remember well
- the problem is also thatthis port is ''on'' while the bike is charging ^^

This system should only be activated while riding ^^

My bad, you were talking about the connectors behind the usb port, i did try and that works fine :)

Still to link it to the on/off of the bike, i'll probably try to fit a transistor linked to front leds.

But for now it'll do the job, hope i won't forget to switch it off while charging yo avoid an oil lake in my garage ^^

Thanks for you're help  ;)

Actually you want the USB outlet to be hot while charging so you can charge your phone while you are charging your bike!

You can take the supply on the fuse box under the fairing.

Ultimate addons sell a 12v splitter, which allows you to split the 12V supply before the USB outlet.

I hope you're not trying to use the frame for a ground. I noticed E-bikes use floating grounds, even for 12 volts. I cannot speak for other bikes, but in my Zeros, I use the negative side of the headlamp for a ground connection--which is NOT connected to the frame.

Here’s my solution. I have an Eva 107 ‘19. Search amazon for an OBDll 12V adapter. You can use the switched 12V power from the OBDll port on the right side of the bike for accessories and you don’t need to install a relay. I’ve got a dash cam running off of that. You’ll just use that part from amazon as a plug adapter. It works fine if you have a low draw device. Let me know if it works for your situation.

Can you provide a link? My initial search did not show any valid hits.

I assume that's the same plug the USB adaptor uses?

The USB adapter uses the 2 pin connector under the front fairing, protected by fuse 6 in the fuse holder.

Please note that the gauge of the wires on the OBD2 port are not rated for high current draw. The circuit is fused (10A) but that circuit also has other loads.

I just noticed that the horn does NOT work while charging. I wonder if the horn switch is on the low side, as it is on many (if not most) bikes. That would most likely mean the hot side of the horn can be used for a 12 volt supply that will be off while charging.

But I have not yet checked on my bike to see how the horn is wired. My Moto Guzzi Stelvio switches on the hot side, so perhaps that is the way it is on other Italian bikes, which means it will not be able to be used. But is worth checking if the horn connections are easy to get to.

Forget about using the horn wire.  I just checked. One side is grounded which proves the opposite (hot) side of the horn is switched.  I guess that is the Italian way as all my other bikes (other than the Stelvio) switch the horn from the low (negative) side.
