Does the Charging Module continue to draw power after the smartphone is removed?Updated 2 months ago

Yes, the Charging Module continues to draw a small amount of power even after the smartphone has been removed, as it does not have an on/off switch for technical reasons.

This minimal standby current has no noticeable impact on your vehicle’s battery during normal use — provided you are using a stable 5V/2A power source.

To prevent battery drain after switching off your motorcycle, we generally recommend connecting the Charging Module to the ignition-positive (switched power). For this purpose, we offer our optional Cable 12V DC. This cable features two open ends for connection to the motorcycle battery and provides a built-in USB-C port for connecting the Charging Module or the Charging Anti Vibration Module.

When connected to the ignition-positive, the power supply is automatically cut off as soon as the ignition is switched off — keeping your system optimally protected.
