I'm a noob building this simple setup for the purpose of powering a 12 V fridge in my truck. This build will replace a Jackery system. I have two questions:
1) What do I need to add to the build to be able to charge this battery from the 12 V (10 A) outlet in my truck? It seems like a 12 V trickle charger may work(?) or a DC-DC charger (more expensive). I'd like to keep this build as inexpensive as possible.
2) Is it possible to have this battery setup connected to the 12 V (10 A) outlet in my truck and the 12 V fridge such that when I am driving, the 12 V (10 A) outlet is charging the battery while the battery powers the fridge (thus the battery is ideally not losing its charge), but when I turn the truck off and the 12 V (10 A) outlet no longer supplies power, the fridge is powered solely by the battery?
More details:
I'd like this battery to be chargeable via solar, AC, and 12 V DC. The build guide I linked covers the solar and AC charging, and it explains how to incorporate a DC-DC charger to charge the battery from the alternator. However, it doesn't explain the easiest way to charge the battery from a 12 V (10 A) cigarette plug.
