Abstract: A multipurpose power point for use by, and accessible to, the driver or other occupant of a vehicle, includes a generally cylindrical terminal housing having center terminal and at least one detent for retaining a ignitor plug within the terminal housing. An overtravel preventer attached to an outer housing portion of the power point engages the detent and subjects the detent to a radially inwardly directed force sufficient to prevent the detent from deforming plastically in response to forces placed upon the detent by power consuming devices inserted into the terminal housing.
