Please will you just explain with your dcdc charger you had the power from the 15a fuse in the fuse box and the earth lead from the leisure battery so both earth's will go to the leisure battery thank you
With the solar, we've managed over a week and been fully charged most days with charging my gadgets and a hour or so of TV and all day internet in the summer.
@@IntrepidIresons That's awesome. My van had bad damp so had to go and I'm in the process of replacing it. Along the way I have picked up an Eco-flow delta 2000 and extra battery which I hoping to integrate ..... although I was going down the camper van route I have since changed my mind and am going back to the caravan...anyhow... have to figure out how to integrate the eco-flow into the new (second hand) van. Thank you for your reply.
No changes to the car at all, just use that splitter to move the feed to the dcdc in the van and dont add the fuse which would pass power through the original route. Look out for the 2nd video in my channel on the chargers

With your dc2dc charger you have the power from the fuse box but have you taken the negative of the battery itself
Yes the earth's are already connected to the leisure battery so just connecting to the leisure battery and the solar to the same on the dcdc also works.

The renogy DCDC30 is a shared earth. One earth/ negative for all sources, solar battery, car.
Hello sir. May I ask a question. After upgrading to lithium how long have you been able to stay off grid? Wondering how much power your caravan uses?

What dc -dc charger did you use and how did you connect it in your caravan?
It's a renogy dcdc30. If you look at my ac charger upgrade video you'll see it and the wiring.
Do you have to do any others changes to the car to power the dcdc charger.or just remove the fuse and replace the charger thanks

Yes, it has a common negative for all sources.
And thay earth is on the leisure battery
