With our new van on order I have been setting up tow vehicle to suit. It requires two anderson plugs, one to run battery and the other (red anderson) for esc. Fridge is then run through 12 pin.
I don't want the fridge to run through 12 pin so as soon as we get it I'll put an anderson plug to run that. Now I need three anderson plugs! So at the moment grey plug protected by 30a breaker and red anderson via 50a breaker. Grey to run fridge as it will draw somewhere between 18 - 23 amps non stop.
Now here is my question, I don't want to run a third anderson but I have made up a anderson double adapter using 8 bns wire. Is it safe to run this double adapter on the red 50a esc anderson? It will be running battery which I believe the bpro35 things sucks 20amps until battery reaches a float stage and I'm guessing esc could pull around 25amps. Best I could find is esc will use 6.2amps per twin brake magnets so I'm thinking 6.2amps x 4 (dual axle) not sure if this is correct?? So the red anderson will possibly have 45amps coming from it if the esc operates and battery is still charging. Which is below the 50amp breaker so I'm hope in good this is still a safe set up? Thoughts?
Other option is forget about charging battery via anderson and let solar do it. I believe when plugged in to 12v the solar then doesn't charge as car dc has priority, which seems a waste. This option means only need two andersons and no double adapter.
