Actually, this has more to do with it's battery and how it can be used.

Does anyone know if the lithium battery built into this system can power the accessories within the vehicle?

Looks like that battery can store up to 430wh and since there's a separate lead acid battery, I would guess you can completely drain that lithium battery without any worries.

This could be very useful for those who camp a lot if the 48v lithium battery converts to 12v and directly hooks into accessory power ports.

Lithium batteries do not like to be completely discharged. Chris

Never had a problem discharging all my tool batteries.

X2 I run all of my Porter Cable tools (all of them use 18V 30ah lithium batteries) completely dead. Are these batteries different from what is in the Ram? My biggest question would be how much will a replacement battery cost and when or if Ford and GM will jump into the this also?
