Hi all - like many, I replaced the old AGM batteries (thanks for a great 8 years, AMGs!) with a lithium ion battery. I installed the battery and was perplexed by the draw shown on the BVM. So, I consulted the forum and learned all about smart alternators, voltage differences, how the Blue Sea ARC works and why it isn't a good match with a LI battery. I really appreciate everyone's input on previous posts!
I've deducted that I should get a DC/DC charger to prevent the camper battery from providing power to the truck so that I can charge the camper battery from the truck alternator. Question is...
Does the DC/DC charger replace the Blue Sea ARC or does it go somewhere else in the wiring diagram? I have a 2017 Hawk front dinette with the standard wiring to the truck.
Thanks again, all!
