Dual battery installation - HGT Next Gen Raptor Ranger Build
Back in the garage with finally showing the Raptor some love again and sorting out the 12v auxiliary power installation with a dual battery installation. There were a few ideas with how to do this project, I finally decided to go with a basic simple system.
The gear
• Itech world 54ah lithium battery
• Itech World dc-dc 25ah charger
• Pirate Camp Co Tub switch panel
• Drifta LED strip lighting
• Wiring to suit
We decided to mount the battery in the driver side under seat storage in the back. While it was slightly too large for this location it still fits and works well. Secured by a cam buckle strap that runs under the plastic tub
The DC-DC charger is straight forward to wire, everything is we...

Thought I'd have a watch and see what others had done, then I notice a few things that look awfully similar to the point that the compressor button confirmed it, that is the Fortuner I own now. 😂 I'm honestly glad you made these videos, so now I know what it has got done or has had done to it in the past.

    Great video mate, definitely helped me figure out my dual battery setup. Was a little confused with all the wiring initially, I decided to go with a redarc dcdc charger instead of the itech one, though, wondering why there is so many negative outputs on the itech one, did you just join them all together and earth them?

      @HappyGoTravel Месяц назад

      Thanks mate. Power from the car to the charger has + & -, that one is earthed to the car. From the charger to the second battery + & - to the terminals. The solar input just lives under the seat + & - on an Anderson plug. Then its just one 6bns + wire to the power panel in the tub to the busbar fuse block to power all the outlets and i made a negative busbar for all of them as well so i only needed 1 negative wire back to the car.
