I have purchased a new caravan with a victorn system. It has 1.2kw of solar and 900 ah of batteries. I want to be able to charge the batteries in extended periods of bad weather. Is there a way to isolate the charging direct to the batteries and now power all the other appliances while the van is hooked up to the generator. As a complete newbie to these systems is there anyone that can explain simply a work around or a simple addition to add to make this viable. I have a small 800 watt generator that fits my weight and size requirements but not charging batteries as the system currently prioritises powering everything over charging that battery.
Assuming you have 12/24 v yes there are dedicated chargers you can use.
With an 800W at 12v that is a 50A charger.
You would still run i to this problem though if your loads are draining the battery as fast as you are charging it.
