Post Fitting a USB charger

Hi All

I've ordered a USB charger off eBay and was thinking of mounting it over the weekend. It's the kind you can mount on the handle bar.

As I didn't want it to be on all the time I planned to attach the red wire directly to the battery and attach the black one to the tail light black wire. This way the charger would only work if the ignition was on. In theory anyway.

This did not work as the circuit is closed even when there is no key in the ignition.

Any advise on how or where to hook up the cables to achieve this? I tried to look on the forum but haven't really found an answer.

Thanks
Sis
