Is that stock or aftermarket? Do i dare use it with engine off, or only idling/driving?

120v 15A = 1800w???? Thats like a friggin tea kettle

Holy shit i can boil water and make cupanoodle in this thing???

NO...you might want to read your manual....chances are, the receptacle will MELT if you attempt to draw 15 amps @ 120v....use your head, you know better! I would expect it to be rated for 3 amps, at most....so, what is the answer guys...who has looked it up?

OK, 1.25 amps...roughly at 120v......because the fuse is 15A SHOULD mean that the fuse is the weak link....but in the auto world, it just isn't done that way!!

Ahh didn't realize expeditions had em too, my SSV has no console

So 150w eh? Mine's not printed or maybe had a sticker that came off

Which means laptop yay, boiling water nay... gotcha


Does it work with engine off?

I'm guessing it works with the ignition/engine off as Ford is infamous for leaving connections like this hot all the time. But you can find out as easily as anyone can.
