How many watts are the 2025 USB C ports?

[Maverick123]

Apparently the Maverick's 12v outlet fuse is 20 amps, and the electrical system puts out +/- 14 volts while the engine is running so that's a potential of 280 watts.

Wild! I hadn't really thought about how powerful that outlet is ... So a 65w PD lighter plug isn't a big strain on the system

Did you read the reviews? When it gets hot it shuts down.

but in the winter it helps heat up the cabin! and i guess in the summer too.

I looked on the fuse panel but couldn't find it - doesn't the circuit power other things as well?

I've pulled the cig lighter out of the panel a few times, and was curious what gauge of wiring it had running to it.

My phone shows it is fast charging when I plug it in, so it has to be doing at least 30W or 45W for that to come up. I'm not sure what the official spec is. The charging pad is likely 15W, it won't even keep my battery even in my case. However, it is helpful to slow the rapid drain that streaming Spotify and Maps can inflict.

I can't find how many watts the 2025s USB-C ports put out.

Are they powerful enough to super-quick-charge phones, or to charge a modern laptop? IIRC it takes about 65 watts to charge a laptop. Would be nice being able to charge off the USB C port and not having to carry around the 120v power brick!

Oh and a bonus question: I know the 120V outlets put out a weird split phase "AC" that some devices don't accept, so does it work with e-bike chargers? Mine are Specialized if it makes any difference ...
