I think you should have at least 13.2x and probably 13.8v and the battery equalizing charge my solar controller puts out for a short period every day is 14.4v but I don't know if the alternator and converter/chargers do that.

To change subject slightly, how does one go about running this heavy gauge wire? On my Ford there is a 30 amp isolator fuse, but getting into that wire might be rather difficult, then you have to run separate wire to the camper rather than the 6 or 7 wire cable normally used and then the wire inside the camber will probably be a lighter gauge also if you use the normal camper plug. Can you run straight to the batteries?
