Hey all, was trying to get some advice on 12v vs 48v for our truck camper.
Would it be better to go with a 48v system with inverter to 120v for the appliances and install a 48v alternator on the Powerstroke?
Or better to stay 12v and run 12v appliances with no inverter?
We are after run time. Plan is to run either x2 48v 100ah EG4 or x2 400ah 12v EG4 and what ever charger, inverter needed for either system.
I am told that the 12v system with what we are planning to run would be able to run us for a couple days with shore power. I have no idea on the 48v stuff. The thought on the 48v stuff was to save money on the conductors and a lower overall amp system.
