    DC/DC Battery Charger Wiring Size

    Man, that's perfect. Thanks for putting those calculations together, super helpful. Can I use that same calculation for the output side? 28V charging x 15A = 420W The real efficiency is 88% 420W / 20V cutoff / .88 efficiency = 23.8A The output voltage range is 20v-30v

    DC/DC Battery Charger Wiring Size

    Hello all, I need help figuring out my wiring size for my Orion DC/DC 12/24v-15a battery charger. This is my plan: 12v Van battery --> Orion 12v/24v-15a charger --> my 24v fuse block which is connected to my ‘house battery’. My van battery is a lot easier to access then my alternator, so that...

    Where to connect DC/DC Buck Conveter

    Hey Chris, my main question is how do I connect all of these together. Would this work: 24V Battery > 24V fuse block > DC/DC buck converter > 12V fuse block. Does the converter connect to both the 24V fuse block and the 12V fuse block?

    Where to connect DC/DC Buck Conveter

    Hello everyone! I'm currently in the process of setting up a 24V solar system in my van. Given that I have devices requiring both 12V and 24V, my approach involves having separate fuse blocks—one for 24V connections and another for 12V connections. To power the devices requiring 12V, I'll be...
