Electrical stuff is just magic to me. I really can't get my head around it. Can someone assist? I have an Optimate lead fitted to the bike's battery. I currently run my heated gloves from it. I'd like to be able to run the gloves at the same time as charging my phone. Can I buy an sae splitter to have 2 sae sockets, then the gloves from one and the phone from another? I mean obviously the bits exist for me to do that, but will the battery stand it and put out the necessary power? And would it mean that the battery is not getting charged?

Many thanks

As above the phone will take negligible current and use one of these:
