I have a constant duty solenoid and 150A breaker under the truck hood going to a 2ga run to the receiver with an Anderson connector. My trailer batteries also have have 150A breaker to a short 2ga run and Anderson connector on the tongue so I get better vehicle charging.

Personally, I would go withe the CTEK D250SA DC > DC Charger. They make an add-on device that can do high current charging if your TV can make the power.
