ohhh, that's what you were referring to. I just used dual lock for that also, easy, cheap and secure yet removable.

It just sits in the box/tray itself, then the box/tray is adhered to the underseat flooring with 3M dual lock so it's still removable. I used this cable (https://amzn.to/3YosoyZ) and removed the female end, then just terminated the wires directly into the charge controller. 12' of cabling gives...

1. Yes 2. Probably, but I wouldn't know how. For your first question, you'd basically just do what I did and use a spliced 12v adapter to run power to the charge controller, then from the controller to the battery. You could use the inverter (much more plug and play), but then you'd be...

I didn't, but I certainly can. Although they would only be the parts for the specific components that I used. I no longer have a maverick, so I cant really do any more fit testing that easily. The battery tray and the inverter tray are really the only two pieces you'd need. Let me know if...

I designed my own and used VHB. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/auxiliary-battery-and-inverter-install/

I have, sorry, I forgot the post was still here.

No, it uses an input voltage parameter that you can set manually.

Through alternator output voltage

Ohhhhh, wouldn’t know. Don’t have or want a hybrid model lol. But I understand the concern.

Just as an update here, I used this setup with an Alpicool fridge on a 4000ish round trip road trip up to Montana to see family. I was able to leave my fridge in my truck, running for 4-5 days and only saw about 40% drain on the battery. Testament to the fridge and its efficiency, and its nice...

Correct, the 12v sockets are not constant hots anyways. The Victron charger bases its charging off of alternator output (thresholds that you set since the alternator is variable). It will sense vehicle shutdown and stop drawing power. It's not pulling from the battery, even through the other...

No. The Victron charger has thresholds you can set for charging. For example, If I want it to only charge if the alternator is putting out 12v+, then it will only charge if the alternator is putting out 12v+. If the vehicle is off, it senses shutdown and no alternator output, and disables any...

What I had to do was click download the video and then it played, it wouldn’t play video (only audio) in the forum thread for some reason.

Hopefully those all go through, and the video. May have to download it for it to show.

I don't, but I can take some today when I get off work and throw them up on here. Anything specific you want to see?

Selling my Area 51 XLT FX4 w/Tow Package (7,800ish miles) for less than the price I paid ($36k, Sticker price of $29,985) with all mods/accessories. I'm separating from the military and downsizing a vehicle, just trying to recoup some of the money while offering the truck with plenty of money in...

This does not supply power to the vehicle. The entire system is isolated and the current only flows one way, from the vehicle > Charge Controller > Aux Battery> Inverter.

Correct, everything is isolated off of the second battery. There is no electrical backfeed into the main power system.

Correct, kinda. You manually plug it in but you can leave it plugged in with the Victron DC-DC charger as its able to detect input between whatever voltage ranges you set it to. So you can leave it plugged in forever if you wanted and it wont leach off of the main starter battery, it'll only...
