Power inverter for Camry

The manual says to limit the round power outlet in the center stack to 12vdc/10 amp (120 watt max), but the outlet is on a 15 amp circuit. However, I would like to buy an Energizer 150 watt pure sine wave inverter that would need the full 15 amp capacity of the circuit…could that potentially damage the electrical system?

If someone could suggest a 100 watt pure sine wave inverter, I would buy that instead, but I haven’t been able to find one (the 150 watt pure sine wave inverter mentioned above is the smallest one I’ve seen).

Here’s a pic of the manual page:


Extra info: I’m planning to run a motorized pump while on an extended road trip in the near future. The power requirements are AC Power: 100-240V - 50/60 Hertz, 0.5A, 12V DC - 25 Watts.

I see. So it’s safe to get the 150W inverter but not max it out?

Just be aware your not supposed to go above 20amp draw on the hybrid.
That’s what…360 watts at 12 VDC?
