Power Points/Cigar Lighter Question

[Noobie]

In my 2004 Ford Explorer my owners manual has under dash fuse box labeled as fuse #2 4 rated at 15A and calls it "Cigar lighter, OBD II, Neutral tow". The manual alos has in the under hood fuse box fuse #7 as Power point #2 and fuse #9 as Power point 1 both rated as 20A. My question is I only have two power points (that I see), one in the center console in the front of the vehicle and one in the rear compartment of the vehicle.

What would be fuse #2 4 rated at 15A and called it "Cigar lighter, OBD II, Neutral tow"? Is it some addtional add-on with some kind of smoker's package? Why would then also have a power point 1 and rated at 20A.

I ask because I need a 20A power point and am not sure if what is in my center console near the cup holders, i.e., is it the 15A Cigar lighter or 20A power point #1 .

Thanks in advance.

The cigar lighter/ashtray was an option. The 2 you see are the 20A fused power points.

Scroll down to the picture of the console.

On the right, closest to the dash, is the cigar lighter. It's an ash tray assembly that takes up about half of the tray.

On the left is power point 1.

rrgone and Number4 thank you for confirming that. I was looking at a portable compressor and many reviews noted that you need a 20A outlet. The owners manual seemed to indicate that what I have are power points at 20A, but I wanted to make sure that the front outlet was not a "Cigar lighter" which the owners manual rates as 15A.

Seems to me the front power point is only 20 gauge wiring. Some Ex's might have a power port in the passenger rear qrtr panel, right there when you lift the hatch. That one has something like 10 gauge wire.
