Accessory port options??

Per 2015 Brochure listed under Standard Equipment

12V power port in tent ends

No accessories etc.....just the 12V Power Port



Per Manual
12-VOLT DC OUTLET (IF SO EQUIPPED)

There may be a 12-volt DC outlet (not applicable on all models) in your RV. When the 12-volt DC outlet is used as a power source for an electric appliance, make sure that the appliance operates on 12-volt DC power and that it consumes less than 60 watts (5 amps) of 12-volt power. To prevent short circuits do not allow metallic foreign matter to get into the 12-volt DC outlet.


So IF you can find a 12V DC appliance that can be plugged into that power port and is 60W or less looks like yo can use it.

There is nothing plugged in there now, and nothing came with the camper. There is also no lights in the slide part so it gets rather dim at night. No way for the wife to lay in bed and read a book.

In this pic, you can see the white outlet at the top where something plugs in, but there's really no where to mount anything.

I figured I could get a light as in my first post, and remove the mounting brackets and use some velcro to attach it to the ceiling. Just seems odd that Jayco would manufacture something that you can't really use. Or i'm just missing something...

I've recently bought a 2015 Jayco x254 where the bed slides out the rear. On the ceiling right before you get to the slide there is an accessory port where something plugs in. I've found only 2 options for this plug:

Light https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Lights/Optronics/RVIM46.html

Light/Fan combo https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Lights/Optronics/RVFL51.html

Are these the only options? If this is it, then it seems kinda silly why my new camper would come with the outlet but not the actual light. I've had the light in a previous hybrid camper (Jayco Kiwi 17A) and it attached to a rod that held tent fabric up, but my new camper doesn't have any kind of rods to mount the light too.

On a rear slide, I think the power to the rear slide plugs in there. Do the lights work in the rear slide? Is there a plug somewhere? If it does take an external light, is there a place to mount it?
