12v outlets?

Sorry I know this is a silly question, but I just came back from viewing a 2017 T@B last week and as I was putting my notes and thoughts together I realised - I think I only saw 120v outlets and a few USB ports.

Did they do away with the 12v outlets on the new T@Bs?  If they were still there, where were they?

Sorry - major blonde moment!

    The only 12V outlet on my TAB is located on the underside of the cabinets above the sink.  It has a small black snap off cover.  Round "cigarette" style opening.

    None down by the AC outlet on the drivers side bench Frank?
    That'd be weird, it's the one I use all the time.

    OutbackAZ, Are you sure those aren't USB charging ports side by side? Mine is. My T@B is a 2016 Max S, what model is yours?

    My over counter outlet is like OutbackAZs - 2 USB and one cigarette style with a cap.

    Pxl, Thanks, that's what I thought. My 12v outlet is like yours, down on the driver's side bench.

    There is a USB charging port next to the 12V in the same outlet cover.

    Wow, you guys are great!  Because it was capped with a black cap next to the USB ports (like in OutbackAZ's picture) I must have totally blanked on it.  I couldn't imagine a caravan without at least one 12v outlet, but worked myself up that with all the USB ports that they somehow might have eliminated them! Thank you all so much!!

    "Caravan?"  Did you call it a "caravan?"  You must not be from around these parts!  =)

    Ditto here. Dual USB and one round 12v connector on outlet above the sink. Drivers side outlet is AC only.
    Anyone know what the amps are on the USB ports?

    Don't know the number, but the USB outlets will charge my iPad and iPhone 6.

    Hehehe, I thought the same thing.  Do Canadians use the term caravan for them?

    Don't know about the Canadians,  but those in Ireland do.

    Isn't it a caravan if there are more than one? ;)

    Verna takes the prize!  And nope, caravan would be singular here... unless you mean convoy?  (and yes, I know I'm referring to US T@bs, I'm moving to the US for at least one year in April. The 320s and 400s are available here... well, I say "here" that mostly means in the UK as caravanning would definitely not be a thing people do in Ireland for obvious reasons!).

    HR_Taly, Verna has a magic wand, so that was kind of a given! I was just kidding about the caravan comment, but convoy was a good come back!

    Yes, I used my "special wand", @HR_Taly. I needed to make sure the questions you were asking in the last week pertained to the US version and that you were getting and giving the correct information. I always try to make sure correct info is given to everyone, at least on the subjects I'm familiar with. When you start talking about yucky greasing of the bearings, I tend to zone that subject out ;).  (Your first hint was the fact you would be moving here for work.)
