Sterling 'Pro Batt Ultra' Battery-To-Battery Charger - 12V/12V 30A (1 Viewer)

@Minxy Girl yes that's the one. I'm wondering if it would be better suited than maybe a Sterling Pro?

I'll let the experience techies answer that one!

I'm still not convinced that you actually need it though ..

There is a Smart Energy Control accessory available for the Isotherm compressor fridge, which can be retrofitted, but involves removing the fridge to gain access to the rear of the unit. Intel/Webasto claim that it dynamically monitors and adjusts the fridge temperature in line with the ambient conditions. I haven't fitted one, but it exists if you really want to push down your energy consumption as much as possible. It is mentioned in the user manual.

One of the reasons I prefer the Votronic B2B charger that I mentioned in your other thread, is it has a lower Lead Acid/Lead Gel trickle charge or float voltage than the Schaudt (13.5v as opposed to 13.8v) which is more in line with current voltage considerations for battery longevity.

@Deneb ooh that's a thought ...... which one and was it tricky to fit? I mean the Votronic (please)

This one. I haven't fitted one, as I'm still considering whether to get one or not. It looks fairly straightforward from the instructions though, and I reckon would be easy to fit on the side of the seat frame next to the leisure batteries, keeping the cables short with an easy connection to the D+ take off in the converter socket behind the B-pillar.

I fitted a Votronic VCC 1212-45 earlier this year and I am very pleased with it. It has a good selection of battery charging options including Open, Gel, AGM and LiFePO4. It also has settings and wiring instructions to make it compatible with Schaudt EBLs, very similar wiring arrangement to the Schaudt Booster shown above. I think the term battery to battery is misplaced, true the connection is battery to battery but the function and operation is really with the alternator.
