This link should give you a place to start. The first part is the E-series, the F-super duty is down further in the document.

Do you want a power live all the time, or power on with the key, or power on with parking lights?

Then the headlight switch wiring is your best bet.

I don't have a 2015 diagram, but I suspect if you probe each of the wires as you turn the switch on and off you'll end up finding the one that turns on and off with the light. A yellow colored wire has been used in the past, so if there's a yellow one, start with that.

If you tap directly into the truck's circuits, keep the amp draw low like you described. If you want to add more you will have to do something different, probably add a relay. There may already be circuits in your truck for your use, you will have to read the link I gave you carefully, some trucks have that stuff, some don't.
