I'm not positive at the moment as I'd have to go out to my car to confirm (I'm pretty sure it has it printed on the outlet cover as I've looked at it before, but can't go to my car at the moment), but I believe its somewhere in the ballpark of 100 watts. The actual inverter is pretty small (i.e. low power) and under the shifter in the center console, so its a paint go get to and replace. I have never used it, I just use one I have laying around that plugs into a 12v outlet. A 12v outlet can provide around 180 watts with the 15 amp fuse. So I would suggest to save money and just use one of those. If you need more than the 180 watts, you can just run a wire-harness to the battery and install like a 400 watt one inside the car.
