    I did my searching, and came up with nothing...but I remembered my 2nd gen charging port had a relay that could be jumped to allow it to be on while the truck was off, short of hard wiring it directly to the fuse block or another live power source, has anyone come up with a quick "jump" to allow this for 3rd gen's??

    Another option is to just add your own since the stock one is not very powerful, I added a dual USB in one of the empty slots next to the OEM, it charges at 2.4 amps and is direct wired through a fuse block to the battery so they are always hot
