Who has this plus a stupid question
Who has this on there cars? I have a 2022 UL hybrid and I don’t see it or maybe I’m looking at it wrong ?? Or just not USA lexus ??
the USA charger in the center arm rest
Stupid question but I want to Buy an air compressor for my tires on my car and my electric scooter. How do I pump up the psi?
Do I set up bike or car modes
I’m so confused about that please help me out. Thank you so much.

I have the center arm rest usb-c ports in my 23 ESh, an Australian right hand drive model, built in Japan. I also have a rattle (more of a squeaking) somewhere in the rear of the roof liner, only appears on rougher roads though, but on my 3500 mile car 
As for the air compressor if it is a digital unit you set the psi you want to reach and press go, or if an analog gauge you watch it until it reaches the psi you want and turn it off, for the car 35 psi cold, for your scooter you need to check what's recommended on your scooter tire, usually 40-50 psi.

That’s what I have also…
would love these charging stations cause they don’t sync it with the CarPlay while plugged and just Charged..
I’m the minority because I don’t like CarPlay maybe because it just doesn’t work the same as the phone with the Maps and navigation I feel like I have better control when I have the regular Lexus navigation map and Waze on my phone and on my second phone Apple Maps, so I have three different ways to get around town..

That’s when I get confused you’re saying for my car I need 35 psi but from my scooter tires I need 40 to 50 PSI meaning I need more air for a much thinner and narrow tire. That’s the How confusing that I’m having about these tires car from bike.
you might be saying it right but I guess I need a book for psi for dummies because I still don’t get it.
Psi is not an amount of air, it is a pressure reading, a small tire will only need a small amount of air to reach high pressures like 40-50 psi, the pump will read the pressure and pump the appropriate amount of air.
Small tires require more pressure than car tires as there is less air in them, meaning a small deformation caused by the road will pinch the tire against the rim and cause bad road holding if not adequately pressured.
Smaller tires have a smaller contact patch, since this area is smaller a higher pressure is needed to support the weight , a larger tire spreads the weight over a greater area so can run a lower air pressure.
Also for scooters higher pressures are recommended to reduce friction and increase energy efficiency.

I have a portable compressor that shuts off when the tire reaches the preset PSI. I rarely use it though - the local QuikChek has a digital pump that does the same thing so I go there when I need to pump up.
In the armrest storage of my 2021 ES 350, there is a 12 volt type receptacle. For just a few dollars, I bought a plug in adapter that accepts two USB Inserts. Works fine.
I also notice a plastic piece attached under there that serves no purpose. It might be there for further development in other models.

On the 2022 model year ES, if there's a wireless charger in the center console there's just a 12V power outlet in the console compartment and no USB-C power ports. If there's no wireless charger, there's two USB-C power only ports in the console compartment along with the 12V power outlet.
darn it I have the Wireless charger that I never used I wish I can replace it but whatever

I have that double adapter for the 12 volt .
I use don’t like using the usb next to the cup holder cause it turn my volume off and it’s linked to the car plus o never use CarPlay .!

thank you so much !!!
That’s the info I needed .
Just set up before you pump depending on the type of vehicle or bike. That makes sense. Thank you so much again.
