Hi guys! Been following this forum for a few months since my family decided to get back into some camping and touring. Love the robust conversation and you have already helped me so much in lots of decisions about equipment etc.
I wanted to ask some of the 12v gurus out there a quick question.
I already have a 105ah Thumper wired into the back of the Pathfinder. Did it myself and it works well! We have recently ordered a camper van which comes with another 105ah plus solar and is Pre wired with Anderson plug for charging from the Pathy when on the move. My question is, do I need to run a new set of wires from the car battery to an Anderson plug on the tow bar, or can I just splice into the existing wiring I have running to the Thumper without compromising charging rates etc. I rang Blue Apple and was told it would be Ok to splice in but they couldn't elaborate on how this will go charging both batteries. I would like to avoid running more wiring if possible as it is quite an ordeal pulling off all the trim whilst worrying about breaking clips etc. Any help suggestions gratefully received. Thanks. Graeme
