I had my 2020 Elddis CV20 delivered just after lockdown so its currently parked up.
I would like to give the cab battery a charge now and then and have a Victron charger to do this.
The charger came with a remote socket to permanently attach to the battery so I could just plug it in without having to remove the battery cover from the floor, however, as the vehicle has stop/start, the manual states that I should remove a lead from the negative side of the battery before charging.
My question for the techies is: Do I have to do this?
If so, then its not really possible to have this socket wired direct as I would need to remove the cover each time to disconnect the lead.
Also fitted to the vehicle is a b2b charger, could I utilise this somehow for the cab battery?
going forward (when lockdown is over) I will be fitting another leisure battery and having cab battery wired into solar controller.
