Excess Electrical Capacity

Excess Electrical Capacity (EEC) is the amount of excess electrical power your vehicle has in reserve to power additional devices (appliances) without draining the vehicle battery. This number varies widely depending on the manufacturer, model and sometime model year of the vehicle. How to calculate EEC can be found here.

Low Power Appliances

Most vehicles (even scooters) can operate many small appliances like cell phones and GPS units all at the same time. This is due to their low power requirements. It is safe to charge the battery or power all of the devices on this list from most any vehicle:

Cell Phones
GPS Units
Radar Detectors
Camcorders
Personal Music Systems
Bike-to-Bike Communicators
Laptop Computers

High Power Appliances

Due to their relatively high current draw you may have to limit the number of these devices that you run at one time:

Heated Vests	35 Watts to 45 Watts
Heated Grip Wraps	20 Watts
Heated Gloves	20 Watts to 25 Watts
Heated Jacket Liners	70 Watts to 100 Watts
Accessory Lights	110 Watts

Typical Applications	EEC Required	Key
Cell Phones, GPS Units, Radar Detectors	Any Vehicle
Heated Gloves or Charge a Laptop	EEC > 22 Watts
Heated Vest	EEC > 40 Watts
Heated Jacket Liner	EEC > 90 Watts
Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 120 Watts
Two Heated Liners or One Heated Liner Pants and Gloves	EEC > 180 Watts
Heated Jacket Liner + Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 210 Watts
One Heated Liner and Gloves + Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 235 Watts
Full Set of Heated Clothing + Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 300 Watts
Full Heated Clothing + Passenger Liner + Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 390 Watts
Two Full Sets of Heated Clothing + Auxiliary Lights	EEC > 480 Watts

Also see the FAQ for additional information. Email the engineers at Powerlet University for your vehicles maximum alternator output (MAO) and actual EEC.

Power Outlet Types

Decide what outlet type is best for your application(s). While more than one outlet can power multiple devices at the same time, it is also common to put more than one outlet on a vehicle. Sometimes this is required for high current loads like passenger heated clothing, or for devices in the front and rear of the vehicle like a GPS (right front) and a heated jacket liner (rear left). The four most common outlets are shown. Consider size, vibration, reliability, ease-of-use, location and how many electrical devices you may wish to power in the future.

Electrical Appliances

Consider what types of appliances you will power now and in the future. The chart below can help clarify which power outlet types are commonly used for each appliance listed.
