If you've got a power hungry device for navigation and the standard USB doesn't keep up, the Lampa USB Fix might be worth looking at.
Some bikes come fitted with a traditional 12v socket that you can easily use a car type charger, in the Norden we use a 30W USB-C PD, the DesertX has a low output fixed USB Socket.
There's plenty of solutions and some will provide higher outputs, like PD etc, we found the Lampa USB fix works well compared to other QC3 outlets or wireless chargers.
With a switchable QC3 or a Quadlock wireless, both the Samsung and iPhone 13 tested started at 100% and would be around 5 or 10% at the end of a day with nav, bluetooth and music.
With the Lampa, it actually exceeds the draw from the device.
Mount it anywhere that's convenient, we mounted this one behind the screen on the DesertX, and always use BlackTac around any USB ports to keep the water out.
For other items like a GoPro, Sena etc, we've fitted a generic twin USB in the waterproof tankbag.
