30 Amp Battery to Battery Sargent Split Charge System
Can charge Flooded lead acid, AGM, gel, and lithium batteries. If the vehicle battery voltage becomes too low, the output current will be reduced to avoid overcharging. We would recommend that this charger is installed as close to the leisure battery as possible in a ventilated area with a minimum 10cm gap around to avoid overheating as the cooling fan will emit some warm air.

Why is Acid Stratification a Killer of Lead-Acid Batteries?
High deep-cycle demands on battery powered equipment and the increased cyclic demand and parasitic electrical loads brought about by the use of start-stop technologies, increased electrical systems in modern vehicles, and the frequent partial state of charge (PSOC) operation combine to accelerate the #1 cause of declining battery life expectancy: acid stratification.

Do you need a voltmeter for a lead-acid battery?
A lead-acid battery is typically around 50% discharged when its voltage reaches 12.1V so using a voltmeter you can get a quick and easy indication of when you need to re-charge. They are inexpensive, take up very little space and are perfectly adequate for many basic 12V systems.
Should a DC system have a main fuse?
A DC system should always contain a main fuse. Removing the fuse will also break the circuit. So, when the system needs to be maintained or if the battery needs to be replaced, removing the main fuse will be sufficient to isolate the battery from the rest of the system. Always use quality isolator switches.
Can a DC fuses be used in both AC and DC?
Most DC fuses are suitable for 12 and 24 V, but they are not necessarily suitable for 48 V and higher. Please note that not all fuses or circuit breakers can be used in both AC and DC circuits. If the fuse is able to be used for both AC and DC, the voltage for AC is often rated higher than the DC voltage rating.
What is the difference between a lead-acid battery and a lithium battery?
Lead-acid batteries (including wet, AGM & Gel) can typically accept a charge rate up to around 20% of the battery's capacity (i.e. 20A charge output for a 100Ah battery), whereas lithium batteries can accept much higher charge rates if desired (which means a much faster recharge).
Why is my lead acid battery charging directly from my alternator?
If your lead acid battery was charging directly from your car’s alternator, you need to make some changes. Lithium batteries have a low internal resistance. It will demand as much current from the alternator as it can handle, leading to overheating or even burning out of your alternator. Victron did a great video about this:
Why is a fuse box important?
An essential safety item for all installations no matter what size or complexity, a fuse box safely distributes power to each of your circuits and protects the cable from overheating and catching fire if a problem occurs (e.g. short circuit).
