Our '01 3.0 is not in the same league/era as your new X, computers/electronics wise, but I run a Battery Tender frequently via the under hood lugs, and often 'do stuff' in the car, doors open, etc., electrical draw, with my BT connected.

Never a problem, though I wasn't in the front doing a term paper.
