@jonyjoe101 I originally read the AMT12 specs about 11.5 and 11.7 as you did. it made no sense. After re reading it a few times, I think the 11.5 and 11.7 are the low voltage levels where the system shuts off. It actually charges the start battery to 12.8v

The cheap solar controller seems like a good solution for me. I am just not sure whether it can handle my solar panel?

@DiploStrat I edited my original post to add a reference to this item. Any thoughts? I am not sure what a PWM controller is? Recommendations for a cheap secondary controller? There are some very cheap ones on Amazon such as THIS ONE. I didn't realize they are available so cheap. But...

I was thinking of using a Blue Sea ACR (I already have one). I could set it up with an Anderson type plug and just plug it in when needed. What might be the drawback of doing this? I will look at the Amp-L-start. Looks like the man that made these passed away in January 2023 and it is...

I suppose the DC to DC could be reversed but I think that would entail switching the IN/OUT wires each time on the Victron DC to DC.

Any thoughts or suggestions on utilizing the house battery system to trickle charge the starting batteries if the truck sits for an extended period? Hopefully there is a reasonably priced solution. I found this item, AMT I am not sure if it will work with the Victron DC to DC. Current set...

So most of the advice above is for 10awg and 12awg. You are recommending 6awg. That is a big difference. When I see such a difference in advice, I have to assume someone is right and someone is wrong. Bigger wire = less voltage drop. But in reality is 6awg needed for this? How much better...

Super helpful. One of the most informative responses on EP. Thanks

Victron Smart Solar MPPT 100/30 What size wiring should I use for solar panel to MPPT and then from MPPT to battery? Wire length from panel to MPPT is about 15 feet. Wire length from MPPT to battery is about 1 foot. Battery is 12v 100AH LiFePo4. Solar panel is as shown in the photo below.

Still have some left.

Bump. Still taking up space in my garage.

Installed this one in my F350 in September. It has car play and android audio (both via usb cord) and bluetooth for music and calls. Backup camera and front facing camera. Nice feature it has is that after you go from reverse to drive it automatically puts on the front camera for a few...
