Actually its a new trailer. Never had batteries on it
It has the wires there but the ground wire won't reach the second battery.

Some RV's come with wire that is just at the edge of being able to carry the load and charge current, usually 10 AWG or 8 AWG. If a user then upgrades the batteries, installs an inverter and gets greedy with power, the original wires are woefully inadequate.kearlms wrote:
We bought a pair of THESE. They work great.

Good selection here.
