48! Interesting.

So, everything is derived from my 115v inverter. My lights, refrigeration, water pumps, literally every electrical device finds it's capability from my 115vac system. Voltage fluctuations are nonexistent.

So when I got my electrical engineering list of white papers, I was intrigued by the report the auto industry is working on the concept of using a 48vdc buss system(still considered low voltage) as the next step in correcting the 12v shortcomings.

Yah, it may carry undesirable consequences. Right now car/RV systems like radios and such must work at voltages from 10 to 16 volts maybe a little more. With a more regulated voltage, those accessories may fail due to being built less robust.

Of course, that is speculation on my part.
