Solar generator and truck camping
I got to try out a Jackery 1000 solar generator(22 pounds) and solar panels to see how they would work for a truck camper..Actually,I am pretty impressed..The ability to use the pure sinewave inverter...

I'm thinking maybe a DC-DC charger would be a good addition to my camper rig to provide efficient charging from the truck alternator as well.
Some models also have solar controller function.
DC-DC chargers are great if you tend to drive several hours between campsites.
If you buy a pre-packaged solar generator, you need to check the compatibility between the DC-DC charger and the solar generator. The DC-DC charger is design to connect directly to a battery, not a second smart charge controller.
