I have a f250 and jayco van, the ftruck has an isolated house battery and the van has 2 batteries, all agm and good nick, 120w solar on the van plus Anderson connected from tow rig and 200w solar on tow rig.
The van fridge seems to suck the life out of anything attached to it while travelling. Even with all the above,
After 5 -6 hours on the road both batteries are low 12s high 11s, what am I missing here? It’s getting quite frustrating.
Surely if the alternator struggles the solar keeps up?
Even today I ran the genny for an hour after pulling into free camp, paranoid running the genny after 6 of course!
Is there some sort of a breakdown somewhere in the system?
Any help appreciated.
