Something else to keep in mind is the fact that the outlet will most likely only work with the engine running or possibly key in the ignition. Also like others have said it won't be a super high wattage one regardless. However, might be enough if you just need to charge stuff during the day on the road to camp.Hi all, currently going between base builds without Mid package, and Big Bend builds with it. The safety features I really like in it, but it’s not necessarily a dealbreaker - especially because it means the ability to step up to 2.7 V6 on the base.
But, I keep coming back to the 110v outlet too. It would be really handy to power stuff for camping, have the ability to charge and operate anything with a normal plug. What are the options out there for a 110v inverter that you can wire into the car’s 12v system? I knew very little about electronics and don’t know the difficulty on how to install one of these and what is required. Anyone with Jeeps or other overlanding-type rigs have something aftermarket for this?
I've got a bit of experience building camper vehicles and I always chat with folks about being clear on what they need power for. So many things these days run natively on 12v. Almost always it comes down to if they travel with a laptop (which can be charged during the day)
If you find that you are needing dedicated 110v power for heavier use the typical route would be to get a dual battery/house battery setup with an inverter. But that can be pricey for sure.
Hope that's helpful.
