Hi folks,
Two weeks to go until I pick up my new custom CT. Originally, I was told that the electrical package included a 12V system that allowed the battery to be charged from the tow vehicle. I now find out that it is charged from a shore power connection, NOT the tow vehicle - that would be extra wiring for an extra charge. So now I'm doing research on installing that - battery isolators, etc.
Has anyone done that? are there older threads or articles on this site that cover that? I'm wondering on exactly how difficult it would be, options/alternatives, etc. I do have solar panels, but was not planning on installing them on the trailer just yet, just setting them out while camping, and if I'm travelling, I wouldn't be in one place long enough to charge them through the panels.
Any assistance would be helpful.
