Hello everyone, first post here. I am planning on building the minimalist system in the near future for my travel trailer. My problem is I need new batteries now, but I'm not quite ready to plunge into a solar system for a few months.
I plan on buying two 100ah SOK's now. How can I safely charge these with my trucks alternator (F250 with 240 amp alternator)? Is the renogy dc to dc charger my best bet? Can I safely charge the sok's with a propane generator hooked up to my trailers 30 amp cable after some modifications? If so, what do I need to do?
Ultimately I would like to get a victron multiplus to power my entire ac system with 400ish watts of panels on the roof, but I'm not quite ready to spend that much money.
Thanks!
