    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    That’s a cool little product. I have about a 25’ run from the truck battery under the hood to the trailer batteries in the very back of the trailer. Hence the 4AWG wire… James

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    My 2019 Nissan Frontier has a 110A alternator. Using a clamp on DC Ammeter I measured the current on all the positive wires going to the battery, at 3000 rpms, with the A/C on and the music blaring (so the amplifier and subwoofer were working). The meter showed 32A. My research shows this...

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    Battle born told me their batteries can be charged at 50A. Can you help me understand why you only chose a 30A model?

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    @4x4tripping We’ll have a Jackery 1000 power station on hand for emergency situations. I don’t want to depend on an all-in-one solution for full time on the road. Individual components allow for individual replacements in case of failure. All-in-ones mean you lose everything if the unit fails.

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    Yes it would be at the rear where my 2 Battle Born 100AH batteries will be. Redarc wiring harness will go into trailer floor through watertight connection.

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    Yes, I was thinking underneath the trailer (Runaway Camper Venturist) on one of redarc’s universal mounts.

    Anyone using a Redarc or Victron DC-DC without crazy heat/current throttling issues?

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    Mmm… kind of. You need an AC-DC converter (not inverter) to convert 120VAC shore power to 12VDC. I understand the difference, I was curious whether anyone had run across an all in one unit instead of using multiple pieces, for space constraints…

    Battery management with shore power and solar?

    The BCDC1225D does not list shore power as an input. Does anyone know of a Redarc DC-DC charger that does have shore power input?

    Morning! Can you provide a long term update on how your Runaway has held up over time? Any problems/issues that would keep you from recommending one? James

    Building a 2014 Nissan Frontier Pro-4x in CA

    I had no idea that was your truck I’ve been staring at on Coastal Offroad’s webpage!!! How do you like their bumper? What kind of winch do you have in it and how easy was it to mount? I’m thinking pretty hard about this bumper because I just had a fender bender, so I need to make some...
