Ron,

Is your dc-dc charger 60A? I might switch to ought wire and use welding cable too. Going with a relay so I can de-energize that wire when not towing. Plan to use the same circuit to run an electric winch on my boat trailer (getting to old to crank my 9k boat onto the trailer).

I used Victron solar controllers, battery monitor and Cerbo GX (that interfaces to my Raymarine display). Still kicking myself for trying the (more expensive) Balmar on our trailer!

BTW - My MorRyde IS trip isn't scheduled until 11/4/22 and we booked that about 45 days ago! Did you get their IS?

Rip, we got on the MorRyde schedule when we ordered our new Montana. We’ll be there just before rally starts for IS. The BIM will provide full alternator power is my understanding for 20 minutes per hour. Not sure of the the exact algorithm it uses. I have been told it will provide about 40 amps per hour of driving.
