This stuff has gotten so complicated in the last ten years or so.
In the olden days, we just put a 90amp self-resetting marine breaker on the firewall on the line coming back to our 100amp rated Lift Gate Plugs for our charging umbilical between the truck and camper with 4 or 2 gauge wire all the way back and connected to our big banks of batteries.
Hey Matt, that's basically how I used to do it before getting 400 ah of life in the TC. Now it's DC TO DC and no 12 volt direct connection from truck to TC bat bank. You don't want the higher charger voltage feeding back through the 12 volt 7 pin connection creating a loop and throwing off your ecm voltage regulator.
