Sorry to jump in with a related but different question. I removed the Jobani panel and have added 4 panels that give me 915 watts and 2 Renogy batteries 200AH. I have been told that the factory set up will only charge them to about 80%. Also told that I should probably by a DC to DC charge limiter to protect my truck. I have a 2020 GMC dually with 220 amp alternator & 170 Amp secondary alternator. Looking ad the DC to DC they have 20A, 40A, and 60A. SO - do I need the DC to DC and if so what amp? Then does it mount in the truck or trailer. Also I'm considering upgrading my factory Converter Charger.
hope these aren't to crazy of questions... I'm trying to learn to use my set up to its fullest.
