I would suggest a fuse block.

My left bar controls look similar to greywolf's.


The knob to the right of the cruise control switch is for the heated grips controller. The bat switch above the cruise control switch is a momentary switch that cancels the cruise when set.


I have a triple controller for my heated gear. It attaches to the gas tank magnetically.


It plugs into a Powerlet socket:

Nice setup Ranger Ron. Is the bat handled toggle insurance against the clutch, brake and cc off button all failing to kill the cruise control? Even the increase in rpms from dropping the bike would do that as well as the before mentioned moves, not that there's anything wrong with overkill.

Thanks.

It's a spring loaded momentary switch. I use it instead of having to tap the brakes in order to disengage the cruise. Just a quick nudge with the thumb does the trick.

I just put the dual controller in my jacket pocket right now, (Less wires running all over the place.) Thinking of mounting it to the left side of my seat. Thinking making some kind of craddle to set the controller in that could be attached to the left screw holding the brace that the gas tank is on or something, then after riding the controller would just slide out and I can walk away. (still in the planning stages)
I have the gerling liner and gloves (total 104w) and at a light I will fall below 12v with everything on high. The best solution came from Grey Wolf [of course =-)]
"I have an SPDT relay activated by the brake lights. When the brakes are on, the normally closed contacts on the relay open and the power to my dual heat controller is cut off. I can choose whether to save power or continue to heat while idling by applying the brake or not."
Looking to try this at some point soon. I am running HID and LED brake lights. At speed I have no problems runing at high and I would rather not fittle with the controller so this idea sounds great.

Also everything runs off of a PC-8 fuse block.
