a user interface configured to receive an input, wherein the input is one of turning one or more ports of the plurality of ports off or on.

10. The platform module of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle further comprises:

a usage sensor configured to detect a load on the plurality of ports; and

control circuitry configured to turn off the power to the plurality of ports in response to the load being undetected for a period of time.

11. The platform module of claim 1 , wherein each port of the plurality of ports is coupled by an electric wire system to a vehicle battery.

12. The platform module of claim 1 , wherein the movable member comprises:

a frame;

a countertop positioned on top of the frame;

the plurality of ports disposed on the countertop; and

a leg member configured to pivot around an end of the frame and provide support to at least some of the platform module.

13. A vehicle comprising:

a movable member configured to extend from a storage compartment;

a plurality of ports disposed on the movable member and configured to provide electric power, wherein:

a first port of the plurality of ports disposed on the movable member is configured to provide a first voltage; and

a second port of the plurality of ports disposed on the movable member is configured to provide a second voltage; and

a switch configured to turn off power to one of the first port, or the second port in response to the movable member retracting into the storage compartment.

14. A method for switching power to a platform module for a vehicle, the method comprising:

providing power to a plurality of ports disposed on a movable member;

detecting, based on a position sensor, a position of the movable member;

wherein:

providing power to a first port from the plurality of ports when the movable member is in a first position; and

providing power to a second port from the plurality of ports when the movable member is in a second position without providing power to the second port when the movable member is in the first position.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first port and the second port are configured to output different voltages.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

providing power from a vehicle battery coupled to the first port and/or the second port;

monitoring, via a sensor, a battery storage level of the vehicle battery; and

turning off, via a control circuitry, the power to the second port in response to the battery storage level dropping below a threshold storage level.
