    That’s the easy bit mate :)
    Gonna have a light and cooler box running from a leisure battery and kept charged with a solar panel :cool:
    My trailer isn’t large enough to do this so I’m on the lookout for a bigger one :p

    I use an old 18ampere moto batt as my camper power supply. Use an Anders 50 amp plug on bike/trailer to charge it up whilst traveling to camp site. LED's use so little current/power battery should last for weeks. The 12 volt cooler/fridge might not run for Too long but ? I use a large industrial grade Esky for food storage. Freeze every thing before you pack it in the Esky,bit will stay cold for up to 10 days in 40°c plus days !!
    Just added picture of my 70 litre Esky, they come in many sizes ! I'm looking at 100 litre option/upgrade for planned trip in April. Northam WA to Darwin NT , about 5,000 klms round trip. Planning on 4 to 6 weeks away !

    The tank bag I have doesn’t sit well on NUDGERS tank:(
    It’s too high and interferes with the beach bars that are fitted :(
    It’s also too close to my eyes and I would have to wear my reading glasses to see it:(
    I can see the speedometer and read the digital display so it makes sense to mount the phone next to the speedo :)
    I also don’t want to be carrying a bag about every time I leave the bike :confused:
    With a suitable phone mount I just unclip it and put the phone in my pocket :grinning:

    Sounds sensible. I tried using my car nav in a tank bag at first and found it too much of a look-down to focus on quickly before looking back up to see what the moron cage drivers were up to. Having it by the clocks is way more sensible.

    Again....I’ve been looking at these and they do a hard case type which looks good :)
    Think it’s gonna be one of these or the Givi one above :)

    That's the one I've got (the hard case) its very good and easy to take off but is a bit bulky to put it in a pocket.

    Hi dilligaf, I assume you have checked out the Triumph phone holders as shown on the Speedmaster accessories listings?

    I’ve seen some Triumph ones in accessories but can’t find a page for 2018 Speedmaster :confused:
    Do you have a link :)

    I just went onto Speedmaster spec, in Triumph website, then onto “configure” and all the accessories are listed. They show 3 sizes but they may well be the same as the general Triumph ones you mentioned.

    I’ve come to a decision and ordered the ultimate addons one for £43.99:eek: from amazon
    A bit more than I was hoping to pay :(
    But looks like a quality bit of kit :) hopefully :confused:
    I also had a play about with google maps on my iPhone and after turning off WiFi/Bluetooth and Data I put the post code in for work :mad: this morning and it worked a treat :grinning:
    Basically I got myself a sat nav without buying a sat nav :grinning:
    So it works and I’m now at work :sob:

    I have one for Doris and it works great, if you’re going to want to listen to instructions I’d recommend one of these so you don’t have wires flapping around from your phone, if you don’t have a helmet Bluetooth thingy already. Make sure it receives

    :eek: It’s Feckin huge :eek:
    Seems to be a nice bit of kit :)
    Put my phone in it and it and can use all the functions :)
    Can see it clearly enough without glasses which is what I was hoping for :)
    Moved the handle bars lock to lock and it clears the tank no problem :)
    Yeah I think that’ll do the job :cool: B377B944-63E9-4A5F-A366-B2792C3498E1.jpeg
