Best installation for solar/alternator/main in a 24v camper-truck

I have read many posts on the subject and I have build my off-grid power system in my house in Namibia... however, I am confused for the 24 v installation in my camper-truck.

The truck is 24v, so I presume that it is best to have the whole installation 24v, solar panels, inverter/charger & batteries. I want to be able to charge the batteries from alternator, panels & main 110-220vac. I also want a decent monitoring system I can also look on my phone/computer.

Go 24V. Use a 24:12V Orion for any 12 V devices. USB sockets for 12/24V input are easy to get.

Assuming you put a 24V multiplus in, it has a trickle charge function for the starter battery.
