Is there any way (or one coming) for the bed AC outlets to stay powered on when CT is on charge ?

I have a refrigerator plugged in on the vault sockets and it’s going to stop working while the CT is charging overnight if there is not. ?

Thanks

Not yet. It’s a system design issue. It will work while supercharging, but not yet during level 1/2 charging. I saw some comment that they might look at a software fix for that in the future, but I wasn’t optimistic as the comment made it sound like it was simply exploratory.

thanks. Not a real issue at home as it cools real quick for shopping runs that then turn into delayed trip back. I was thinking more around when we are "Glamping" in our Cybertent and running the bed outlets while still able to charge up at an RV slot. Really want the fridge/freezer to still be able to run overnight, along with any phone chargers I have plugged in.

Then you run an extension cord to it. If you plug in with a NEMA 14-50, then the 120V outlets are generally still available.

I plug into a 14-50 currently at home while waiting for my home share installation. When I plug in and charge the truck outlets do not work.

Have this issue too. Thinking about getting a battery powered one to smooth over the AC charging times.

Looking forward to this update

yep, I have the BougeRV cooler/freezer and they have a specific battery that fits in it, so getting it to have additional options. just needed the excuse I guess to go buy yet one more thing :)

Yeah, what I'm doing now, which seems counterintuitive, is plugging my fridge into a ecoflow, then just dumping 50% into the truck when the sun is out while powering all the stuff. But I don't want to need to bring that on short trips when the truck battery is more than enough

Don’t know if this helps, but I CAN CORFIRM while supercharging you can keep your truck bay outlets on. I was able to use a pull-thru supercharger and use the 240v outlet to use a dog tail 30amp adaptor for my travel trailer, was able to keep the family cool with AC while charging for a camping trip ??
