Yes Mike , I wire up a lead from the battery terminals for my electric vest. It's not polarity conscious so not a concern with the positive ground. What is important is the plug in lead that the vest directly plugs into , it's 2 wires obviously , one shielded and the other open . The plastic shielded will be your hot ( neg. ) and the other exposed metal next to it will be the ground ( Pos. ) .
Love my vest and regret not buying one years ago . Extends the riding season or makes you feel snug as a bug in a rug on the cool days.
New Age Motorcycle Accessories sold me their make and then I bought one for the wife , made by Gears . It's better quality with an inline roller temp adjuster .
I use a 3 phase with Podtronics on the MK 111 .
Don't know what the draw is but you could look it up or ask the salesperson.
In a previous older thread I expressed concern that it was draining my battery but that turned out erroneous as the battery itself was the culprit , a dying internal cel. The new battery handles it fine .
Enjoy.
