1 Heated clothing - direct into socket? Sun Feb 07, 2021 4:52 am

I have found my old Gerbing heated gloves and inner jacket and thought Id give them a whirl.
Possible daft question alert.
Instead of wiring into the battery can I plug them direct into the socket in front of the coils (16v model) as I have the BMW plug connection? I've previously only used this plug as a means of keeping the battery charged.
The Gerbing manual says I need an inline fuse though. Example: gloves @ 2.2 amps, Jacket @ 7.4 amps. If using both - (9.6 amps) a 10 amp fuse is required - so I'm guessing direct into the socket isn't an option?.
