Breakers or Fuses? It can get really hot under the hood of a truck, especially while towing or hauling on steep grades. We depend on our RAM 3500's charging system and our Dual 40 Amp Renogy DC-DC Chargers to keep our Truck Camper batteries charged. The Young Marine breakers that we had been using were tripping frequently due to heat buildup near the engine, especially in the hot summer weather. I swaped them out and explain our experiences with both.

This is an update to a previous video where we discuss the steps needed to set up and install an alternator charging system (DC-DC Charger) in your RV. We have dual alternators and installed dual Renogy DC-DC Alternator Chargers in our NuCamp Cirrus Truck Camper. We share the process we went through and how it works. This system allows us to charge our 600AH Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) Battery Bank at 40-80 amps while the truck is running. Since we drive a lot while we travel, this is now our main source of power.

At this point, we will probably get rid of our generator and add a few solar panels for the few times that we stay still for more than a few days at a time.
