Trailer and battery brand new two weeks ago. Got it. Just hook 'em up in parallel. (I do have a bit of electrical training but I was overthinking things, I guess ;(
I keep looking at solar but I haven't even taken the camper out of the yard, yet ;)
Unfortunately you haven't told us just which battery you have but if it's a garden variety G24 that most dealers would supply with any new trailer unless the purchaser indicates otherwise you might want to ask if you can return it and buy two 12 volt G31s or two 6 volt GC-2s, either combination of which would provide ~ 220 AH of reserve capacity. You also really need to investigate just which converter is in this trailer 'cause if it's a WFCO you'd probably want to replace it right from the get go ... good enough for those who normally camp on electric sites but certainly far less than ideal for those who dry camp, especially those with $$$ invested in substantial battery reserve. ;)
