From one of my more recent trips.
For context, the rack uses entirely off-the-shelf strut channeling and is bolted directly to the unibody bed frame, which also makes it structural (and allows me to use a tonneau cover at the same time).
I use something similar and I highly recommend these steps if you're considering this option:
Manually bend/shape the panel to match the curvature of the seat to both maximize space and clearance for rear passengers
Store something soft (like extra towels) in the approximate location someone...
As a side note, I'm working on a new plug concept that uses an xt60 connector and mounts to one of the rubber routing plugs (instead of the Flexbed knockout) specifically for people with coolers. Ideally that takes up less space than the cigarette sockets and allows you to use that flex bed...
I forget if the inverter runs directly from the HV system, but keep in mind that the 12v electronics run parallel with the battery. So typically you won't see an effect on the 12v battery since the load is coming directly from the DC-DC inverter.
Fnirsi 100w smart soldering iron. My typical use hovers around 50-65w and works better than most I've used before. I like that it's compact and fast, which lets me use it for projects or on the go.
This context may help you:

Some context that may help you:
1. There are multiple power states: (ex: normal, low-power, deep-sleep). When in low-power, some of the remote functions and powerpoints may be disabled. Which is different from Deep-Sleep. I would recommend a battery reset in the...
I think heat ends up being the primary limitation since the module uses passive cooling in an area that doesn't have great ventilation. 65W seems to be the best middle ground, it's more than enough to charge my jump starter and run my soldering iron when I need. I'm sure there are higher wattage...
I'm curious if my tailgate assist bracket would work for the RAM. They tend to use similar dimensions, but if it needs some fine tuning let me know and I can adjust them.
It's part of the USB-C PD ("Power Delivery") standard. The charger can ramp the voltage up or down to match whatever the device requesting to charge is. This is how power banks that are typically only 3.5-7V can charge laptops (which usually require 20V). The other USB chargers can only...
There are two systems at play regardless, it's important to note that the circuit behavior is the same regardless of whether something is plugged in or not.
Normal Operation: circuit is powered for as long as the PowerPoint Timeout is set for. Default for most years/trims is 90 minutes.

Designed for utility: Style HP can deliver up to 65w at 20v, enabling it to charge power banks, jump starters, and laptops while on-the-go or when using the truck as a...
I was still having the issue with the Amazon clips, so I made my own. I'll put it through some additional testing but so far, so good. I'll add them to the shop sometime this week as a community design (low-cost).

Do you already have an ambient light in the center console? If you do, I have the connectors and should be able to make a splice kit to add to the driver and passenger footwells. The biggest cost is the OEM LED module.
Thank you! Shout out to @EvilBeans who first suggested it and you for following up. I really do enjoy seeing what the community requests and what they're able to do once things are out!
I will say that the default setting of 75 minutes is a bit extreme for the size of the hybrid battery. I have the PowerPoint timeout setting set to 10-15min on my truck, which is typically long enough to run bed lights or other accessories I might need.
The power points turn off based on the rear PowerPoint timeout setting, not based on whether there is current draw. The current draw of the LEDs for the illuminated ports is less than 0.005A, so it's negligible compared to the power used by the truck in standby mode.
There is a chance that it...
