(In fact lithiums pose a conundrum -> they are outstanding because their terminal voltage holds up well right close to the point where they are empty, but they are problematic because you can't hardly tell how close they are getting to empty by monitoring their terminal voltage!)
A simple battery monitor will keep you informed all the time. Plus, they are educational (...and fun in a nerdy kind of way...) to be able to see exactly how many amps/etc each item is using. I installed these and am happy with them...

Years ago I installed a digital ammeter into our coach's AGM battery system so I can monitor current into, or out of, the coach batteries at all times during charging ... or during discharging as I turn on or turn off any 12V DC and 12V inverted-to-120V appliances. The ammeter is mounted right on the dash of our Class C so I can easily see it when we're driving or camped.
