Split Charging Systems - Installation Recommendations
Dear All,

I want to talk to a company that installs split charging systems into land rovers - i know nothing about this and am keen to get it professionally done so it's a tidy reliable job.

Ultimately i'm looking to hook a small fridge up, maybe a water pump and, possibly, a winch.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.
Ta muchly

Neil

Take a look at this product : their manual is online - with an option for solar panels that I do appreciate.
I managed the installation and I'm sure you'll succeed, too

It's plug & play

P.S. The winch shall be connected to the starter battery and the alternator because it consumes so much energy.

Once I installed Tmax for a friend, I do NOT recommend it.

It isn’t really that' bad a job to do yourself, i fitted the National Luna kit and it was a doodle quite a nice enjoyable task.
I also fitted the Gwyn Lewis twin battery tray.

Worth giving it a try IMHO

Or meet up with someone in your area and perhaps they can help?

I am in Greater London so not that far from you - happy to help you sort it.

The battery types (for main and aux) is the first decision.
If you want to position both under the passenger seat, then it limits the choice of aux as the space there is tight
Re dual battery tray - you can buy or make your own
You can also fix the vulnerability of the live feed from battery box to fuse box
I went for the Victron voltage sensing relay
