I heard that the 2020 RAV4 now has Li-ion also in mid-July or so. I know Honda has it on all their EV vehicles.

Do you mean RAV4 Hybrid has lithium ion, or RAV4 Prime has lithium ion?
So currently, Camry and RAV4 Hybrids use NiMH?

Wanted to bump this up. Has anyone experienced parasitic draw/dead battery from leaving one of those USB Cigarette adapters plugged in while the car is off?

I've had one of the twin USB cigarette adapters plugged-in in the console for years with no problems. The cigarette lighter receptacle is dead when the car is Off, so there's no reason why it should cause any problem or create a parasitic draw.

Thank you. I picked up my car today and just ordered an Anker adapter.

I have a used 2017 IS350. All of a sudden, the usb chargers inside the console are not working. I have pulled the top off of the fusebox inside the car under the steering wheel. It has a ton of amps/fuses listed but it doesn't tell me which ones go to the usb ports/chargers. Any Idea?
