12 volt outlet?
I've read a few posts here regarding adding 12v sockets and it seems pretty straightforward. However, do trailers generally come with them pre-installed? At least 1 maybe? I can't seem to locate on...

So i suppose i should at least add a 12v outlet outside. Unless someone has a different suggestion?" be careful using an existing 12V outlet to power a tire inflator. The inflator uses quite a bit of current. The fuse on my 12 volt outlet is only .5Amp which blew in an instant when I tried to use my inflator.
I added an additional outlet. Check your power converter; it may have an unused fused 12V outlet. Mine did, and that's where I added a dedicated 12V outlet with its own (larger) fuse.
thanks for the heads up there, since i dont seem to have an existing, i'll be sure to use a larger fuse when i add an outlet.
