Default How to get 12v power from your Onward Lithium Ion?

Brand new to the forum! Hi all.

I have a 4 passenger lifted 2021 Lithium Onward on order and have been killing time by looking at all the accessories out there (sound bars, LED lights, etc...) and they all need a 12v source. I understand there is a built in 12v 15amp connection available from the factory but was wondering what people are doing that need more 12v power than this.

Short of adding a separate 12v dedicated battery I haven't found anything out there. I'd really like to avoid this expense and the hassle of charging it separately. Any thoughts? The dealer said their techs have figured something out but I would like a do it yourself option if it's out there.

I've searched the forum without luck but this is my first post so maybe I am not searching effectively.

I use bazooka 24 inch g2 sound bar with led lights from built in 12 volt acc plug without issues. Unless you are going for high powered components, it should be no problem.

Thanks for the info. Where is the accessory plug/connection located? I read it was in the right front wheel well area but it wasn't clear if that was also the case for the LI ION model.

All I would want to run thus far is a LED underbody/under canopy light kit and wet sounds or bazooka sound bar. Maybe an LED light bar down the road.

That seems like a lot for one 15amp circuit but I am nothing close to an electrical expert.

I think the 15amp circuit could handle the LED kit for the body and soundbar?

Found it! Not in the wheel well, but in the battery compartment.

In the front of the battery compartment, near dead center, there are two labeled wires, 12v + and 12v -.. I tapped into them and ran the power to a Centech fuse block. Running LEDGLOW lights off it so far.

I have a 2021 lithium HP cart. I found this connecter to be +12v key on which I used for my overhead speaker system.
