The power ports on my 07 Tahoe, and presumably all 07's, are powered by battery and always on. Has anyone moved these to accessory power? I only want them on with the key on. I've heard I. Some vehicles it is as simple as moving a fuse but don't see anything like that here.

I went the way this guy did it:

Here's another shot at the same thing:

I rigged up all power outlets this way, front and back. Now I don't need to run out and shut the 12v cooler in the back.

If you don't need too much power, they say that fuse 49 is switched power. Never checked myself though.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback. I'll have to check in to this. I'm just trying to power up my phone off of accessory power so I can leave it plugged in as a heads up display without draining the battery.

Then you'd need to go with the relay option. Don't forget to fuse your newly-powered outlets!
