Good day all. Besides our people in AUS, has anyone had an Anderson plug installed on a WK2 here in the states? I just got my Conqueror UEV 490 and it came with all I would need to have it installed on the Jeep but I am not sure if I need to or if any of our electricians here know about them. Any help with info would be great. Thanks

Hi Royce, in Aus, I've fitted 4 to our vehicles over the years. They are typically used to charge the trailer batteries from the towing vehicle while driving. If your trailer has solar panels that are adequate to keep your trailer batteries charged, you may not need it.

You may be able to find out from a local redarc rep or supplier if there's an installer in your local area. Redarc have example wiring diagrams on their website.
Cheers.

I use one for connecting my winch to my battery, Also to connect my solar pnl to battery. I got a couple extra for other things but have not installed them yet. You can buy more from Amazon or ebay. There are a couple different sizes.

Ordered a few sets from Amazon for my home-made aux battery box. One from my Hot and ground line to the box, and one for my solar input to the box.
