Cigarette Lighter Socket
I just bought a 12V Tire Inflator for my 2017 F150. The instructions say that the inflator "MUST be used with a power port that supports 15 amps." I have no idea if the cigarette power socket supports 15 amps. Does anyone else? Thanks!

In the FSM for the Gen 11 vehicles (2004-2008) it says that the socket is for a 12VDC/180W (doesn't make a reference to 15 amps) and not to plug in anything over that. I would imagine that it would be the same for your vehicle but, I'm no mechanic or electrical guru.

Which did you buy? I've been very surprised by the quality of my slime 40033.
