What to do with Roof 12v Power? (1 Viewer)

[Dissent]

I've run multiple 12v circuits through my roof to the Prinsu rack which manages my Solar Panel, Front Lights, Side Lights and Backup Lights.

I have an extra 14ga run up there and I'm not sure what to do with it. Any recommendations? I've considered LED running lights or adding 12v/USB socket for power to my RTT.

Make your RTT into a 3.5star hotel with heated blanky, fan(s) and light lighting.

It's a poor man RTT (REI 2-man). No star rated.

12v port sounds promising.
