After hearing so many requests about truck charging, I've started an experiment this week to test it out.
I'm disconnecting the solar panel system. This is really easy to do - just unplug it at the roof.
I'll continue to run the compressor fridge until I get the battery to 50% of charge. Then the only charging method will be from the truck.
Later this week I have a several hour drive to make. We'll see just how much power gets restored per hour of driving and if I can get back to 100%. Total drive time is about 6 hours so if the system works that should be a reasonable time to try it out. I'll also look at the FWC battery charging lights and see what they tell me along the way. I will try it running the compressor fridge along the way as that would be the most common way I traveled. Should be interesting to see how much battery power is restored. I would think 80-90% of recharge in 6 hours of driving.
Any other guesses for how much battery can be recharged?
