Hi team,

I am setting up a stationary “always-on” dev environment for an Amiga (Brain + 2x OAK-D cameras). I plan to power the system logic via the provided **50.4V 2.0A charger** plugged into a fork accessory Anderson port using a barrel-to-Anderson adapter.

**Setup Details:**

- **Load:** ~55W (Brain + Cameras).
- **Mode:** E-Stop pressed to disable motors.
- **Goal:** 24/7 power without battery swapping.

**Questions:**

1. Is it safe to run the system logic indefinitely via the 2.0A charger with **zero batteries** installed?

2. Does the internal DC-DC converter (48V to 24V) require a battery for voltage stabilization, or is the charger output sufficient?

3. Any known issues with back-feeding through the accessory ports for long periods?
