Exactly. Should be part of cargo area. Donāt have much use for 12v in that space.

Just watch the power rating - only 100W on that example is fine for your mobile devices, but not enough power to even light an old incandescent bulb.
They sell more powerful choices on Amazon, but you should check the max recommend power draw for those DC outlets, the last thing you'd want to do it damage something that will take for-freaking-ever to replace. Theoretically the fuse should go before you hurt anything if you draw too much current....but better safe than sorry!

Just checked the User Manual - 20 amp and 240 watts max.

Can it be converted to a 110v outlet? Is there an adapter for that ?
If you do opt for an inverter consider the devices you're going to power up.
The inverter should be a pure sine wave inverter if you do not want to damage sensitive electrical components.

Sorry what is a pure sine wave ? Is the is not as simple as plug and play ?
So I can power tools, fridge, etc ??

I would recommend watching a few YT vids before leaping into an inverter.
Some inverters are described as "dirty" due to the lack of a "pure" sine wave. The pure sine produces electricity comparable to the power one receives from the household utility power supply.
Once you're properly set up power tools and fridge will work fine.

You are not only converting 12V to 110v you are also converting DC to AC current, so it is a tricky but not rocket science. There are many good converters out there but there is also a lot of crap out there.

what do you recommend......I just have no use for the 12v lighter.....but I would for 110V Outlet
thanks....this doesn't sounds as simple as I thought it would be
Don't be discouraged
Just ease into it
Figure out how many watts you'll plan to use (add a sufficient buffer on top of that) and work your way forward

DC waveform is a straight line.
AC, alternating current, follows a sine-wave.
Here's an inverter that says it's a pure sin wave output.

Mid package comes with AC power outlet on the back of the center console. I want that same thing in the cargo area! How can we make that possible? It would be very useful there
