I installed mine with a relay to a keyed power source.
Now I never have to worry about a dead battery due to a controller failure, or a weak battery being drained after grips being left on (even with auto off) which leaves them running for a couple of minutes before shutdown. Enough time and voltage loss to cause a no start.
Now it's key off, grips off.

Another update. The controller for my grips turned out to be bad. They quickly sent me a replacement at no charge, installed it, and went for a test ride. I quickly noticed (as others have posted on here) that the right grip is warmer than the left. Anyone know of a solution?
I used some large heat shrink tubing that I found at a electrical supply store. Used two layers on the left handle bar and was still able to get the oxford grip on using some hairspray for lubrication . (YMMV) Worked for me.
