Battery to battery chargers (1 Viewer)

[Nirvanauk]

Morning, I know that this has been done many times before but a search brings nothing up.
Went to pick up the van yesterday and the battery was as dead as a dodo so had to do a jump start. Now, I have 2 X 110 a/h batteries and a big solar panel.

The question is would a b2b charger charge the van battery from the leisure batteries? The ones I looked at seemed to charge the leisure batteries from the van battery. i.e the other way round to what I want.

If I can do this what is the one to go for and how easy are they to fit?

Many thanks.

The CTEK D250S Dual combined with the CTEK Smartpass will charge your leisure batteries when driving at a rate of up to 100Ah per hour, will replace your solar charger so you have no conflict between a BtoB and solar charger and will then charge your van battery from the solar panel as well.

Also, if you are on hookup and have a 240v charger the van battery will be charged as well (using the above set-up).

It's not the cheapest solution but is the best solution I could find when I was looking for charging my own van (It's what I have).

I did a little video on how it works here if your interested:
