Hi all,
I'm wanting to charge up the battery in the caravan as quickly as possible from the 4WD while driving or parked up. I already have a Ctek D250 which works well (20A) but with the possibility of 140A with a Smartpass I was wondering if anyone else has done this and if so how did you get the amps from the alternator to the van?
I look forward to hearing from anyone with some input, positive or negative.
Regards
Chris

I would be concerned that your battery will boil with that many amps into it.
Most batteries have a preferred charge rate and if you exceed it you will damage your battery. I would check the battery specifications and see if it can handle the charge before wasting my money.
