Good point noted. Won't bother with the Triumph cable then.

<thinks>

that would be true for my 2610. The Zumo might have a battery. Still a PITA
if you forget to tell it to stay powered on once the external supply is
off.

You have to fart about finding the miniscule special screwdriver and
then
try to fit the miniscule end in the miniscule screw.
Just get a WUN screw-o-matic and have done with it.

The OP said he has a Zumo which has a 4 hour battery life so he doesn't
need the ignition turned on.

I have mine wired to the ignition. When I turn the ignition off a
dialogue box appears on the Zumo asking me if I want it to turn off. If
I want it to stay on I press "No". If I'm happy for the Zumo to be
turned off I don't answer at all, the dialogue box disappears after a
few seconds and the Zumo turns itself off.
