Peter Max and the power plugs?

Last Sunday I flew on Peter Max from LGW back to IAH in BF. I noted that the EmPower outlet at the front of the seat was 15V DC only. I asked the crew about this; they told me that I needed an inverter to use the outlet with my laptop power brick. But I didn't have one and neither did they. All seats in BF were configured the same. So, no work was possible after laptop battery death which of course now only takes 90mins with my ancient setup.

I was surprised to have this problem onboard. I feel almost certain that I've ridden other CO 772 ships in BF that have regular outlets (maybe 019?).
