Does anyone know what size the inverter is?

Thanks

My manual for 2020 Silverado 1500 says:

One power outlet can be used with electrical equipment that uses a maximum of 400 watts. If both outlets are being used, 400 watts will be shared between the outlets. Ensure that all connected devices do not exceed 400 watts.

400watts at 110v is 3.6amps, its not much to run any actual power tools.

Anyone know where the inverter is located and if you can swap it out for a bigger one?

It's behind the rear seat on the cab wall. I don't think you can swap it and use the same factory wires though.

Its definitely not good for much. Maybe some power tool battery chargers. I tried using a very small pool cover pump with it (too empty pothole water) it ran at about half speed. I have a much larger inverter i will be wiring up separately.

I think it is primarily supposed to be for charging batteries, some lighting and/or a radio. Let's face it, 400 watts isn't enough to run anything bigger than maybe a jigsaw or medium drill.
