Furrion camera monitor voltage?

Does anyone know if the power output on the Furrion camera 7" monitor is 12V? It plugs into a 12V accessory port but I don't know if there's a transformer in the plug that converts it up or down.

Yes, I can measure it but neither the cord nor my VOM is available where I am. I'm only asking if someone has already done that.

My intent is to purchase a replacement power cord on Amazon to hard-wire it to a power source in the ceiling console of my F150. If it's 12V, it's a direct connect. I'll just cut off the end, add an inline fuse and tap into something. If not, I have to figure out how to incorporate the voltage adapter.

My internet search for "Furrion Camera Voltage" came up with specs for several models. All of them were 12volts.

The back of my Furrion monitor.

Uses either 12v OR 24v input.

12v. You're in good shape to cut and splice.
