You can get an adapter to covert the BMW socket to car type off Nippy Norman, works perfectly but you have to charge it while the ignition is on.
Alternately fit a conventional car type auxilary socket and wire it direct to the battery, I think Mippy has these as well.

Or just open up the charger / cigarette lighter plug, and extract it. Add a fuse, and wire it direct to the battery. Cheap as chips.
Short piece of twin flex, BMW plug at one end, t'other end has a car cig lighter size socket that rests in the tank bag.... no probs. Phone charger then plugs directly into it, or the adapter for on board camera to run direct, or even a cig lighter if you wanted!
No probs....
No probs....
You can get adapters at most Yacht chandlers and eBay. Must be a few boat shops around the Norfolk broads ??
