Been 20 and still on.
Odd. I’ll go double check mine. The power to the usb should shut off after a number of minutes.. I’ve plugged into usb at the front. But that shouldn’t matter. How about you? Which usb? I’ve heard there is also a setting for how long power stays active to ports after turning off key.

anyone got insight to this?

The powerpoints, at least the ones I've seen have been set to turn off after 75 minutes. The 110 outlet shuts off when the truck is turned off. The powerpoints are adjustable in Forscan up to something like 18 hours or the timeout can be disabled. Not sure about the. USB ports.

Try giving the one under the radio and see if that makes a difference I guess. Mine shut off after 3 or 4 minutes. I’ve got a dash cam plugged in too and that stays on for a few minutes too, then turns off.

Well I haven't done it yet but I bought some heated leather seats from a lariat truck to swap in my truck. I gotta play with some wires and fix the airbag and seat though so ?

Weird. Moved to the front port and they turned off about 5 seconds after the last dash light went out. They powered up when I unlocked.....but stayed on after shutting off truck and locking. Tried several times with same result. I’m gonna call the dealership this week to see if they can change the timeout duration for me.

Can you set it so the lighting stays on (dimmable) after the dome light goes off? I have this one along with a few others already in my wish list for when I get my Bronco. I kind of got use to the ambient lighting in my Ranger and wanted to add this to the Bronco. I don't care much for the sound activation, I don't need to look like an 80's disco rolling down the street. :giggle:
Maybe the Bronco will have the ambient light option. I had it in my Fusion and thought it was stoopid until I got it set to the right color and now I want it in my truck.

EDIT: Dumb post now that I've read about all the Lariet options available.
