Hi,

The 2019 Peugeot 5008 Hdi Premium has a 230 volt, 3 pin UK mains style socket fitted as standard in the console of the second row of seats, does any member know what the maximum ‘Amperage’ (current) output is for this socket.

I’m pretty sure it will handle a mains operated PC laptop charger unit and possibly a ‘Nebulizer’ machine, but unsure whether it can take a smallish hand held mains powered vacuum cleaner and similar.

Any help on this appreciated,

Thomas

Would imagine its no more than 120w or at a push 150w – all the inverters that I’ve seen with a cig lighter socket are limited to this by the fuse on the circuit.

Realise that the 5008 has one built in but not sure they would run much thicker cables / a new circuit for something that isn’t standard across the range, would make more sense for then to just to “piggyback” it onto the standard wiring harness which is already in place for USB ports, cig lighter socket on all models.

I would assume 5A max.

Hi SaintsMan,

I thought the same as you, 150W max but wasn’t too sure. Technical are coming back to me tomorrow so I’ll post results here.

Many thanks

Hi cb2011,

Not far off the mark there, Peugeot actually state 150Watt max.

Maybe I could use the 230v AC output to power my laptop charging plug whilst driving? I believe that it’s recommended to have the engine running during usage.

Thanks for the info,

Thomas

Hi Rico,

Re: ‘in the heat we got coming up I would put a mini fridge in the boot’

That’s a really  ‘cool’  idea, (pun intended) ????

Could I plug my electric wheelchair charger in to this socket to charge while

I am driving.?

I don’t see why not I have been charging up my mobility scooter charger I just plug 150w/230v invertor into my 12v socket for over 10 years.

Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally say the wrong thing.
