USB-C charging for smartphone

Mechanically

New member
I have a Pixel 2, and figured it'd work great as a basic GPS and nav device for my new-to-me 2018 EC300.

What are my options to add charging capability? I searched this forum but other than some questions on GPS devices, didn't find much on the topic.

Pretty sure the stock charger offers 18w power delivery. I don't know what my car charger in the 12v socket does, but that's more than enough. Obviously I'd prefer not to hardwire something to the battery.

Thanks for any help!
 
That looks like the exact one I have on my bike. I got mine here...

I use something similar on my CRF450x, and on a couple other bikes before that. It's worked brilliantly for five years and probably 15,000 offroad miles. (I can't get a mile away from the truck without having to use my phone GPS to get back).

Oddly enough, after I installed this on my EC300, I started having electrical gremlins. Don't think it's related, but just odd. See my post...
