It would be a dream come true for me to camp with parrots screaching in the background! Ha! I'm sure it's annoying for you since you've been around it. Awesome!

Why didnt the EV manufacturers think of this..? To let the dynamo and small battery charge the large battery while the car drives.?

@ExpeditionAustralia I plan on running the new 12/12 50a dc/dc charger from alternator to 100ah house battery. This should be charging the house battery at about 600w while driving. If I then connect the house battery directly to delta 2 using xt60i, would it also charge at maximum charge(500w) while driving? Then when I stop driving and the dc/dc stops charging the watts will drop to 12v x 15a =180w which I think would be pretty good as a constant supply of back up power. I still get high rate charge during drive time and then a lower constant supply as a kind of battery expansion. Do you think this would work?

You definitely could do it. There were plenty of people over 65 and I even met a guy on the track back in 2006 in his 80’s walking it for the 8th time. He didn’t start hiking until he retired at 65!

What if you push the button because you have an emergency, but for some reason you can not stay put and have to move somewhere else. Does it keep updating them your location, or do you have to keep pushing the button again?

As far as I know it keeps transmitting your location but I’d suggest double checking with the manufacturer. The KTI unit I show here is no longer available to buy but existing units still work.

I see you touching that negative while it is on, is that safe? And if so is that because it is only 12volt?(doesnt matter how much energy is running through it?), would touching the positive be safe too(not the insulated part, but the non insulated part). Thanks, I am in the process of learning more about electricity, especially car electricity.

I think that 10 or 9 meter length you references is round trip though isnt it? Including both the positive and the negative, so that cuts your length in half, and when you run that long it has more voltage drop. How has this set up been working for you? How long do you charge that battery for? Or how long do you use this thing at a time for and how many watts? Do you ever feel the cable to see if it is warm? I bought a 2000 watt inverter and decided to go with 00 gauge wire since it is running 12 feet(24 feeet) and I want to run 600 watts for hours at a time. what do you think? Thanks!

Hopefully someone can help. Can you just connect the battery to the Delta 2, using a battery and the xt60i. A DC to DC converter isn't really necessary? Especially if the Delta accepts DC and limits the consumption at 500w. Just really trying to understand if or why the DC to DC is needed or not.

Help. ! Autotrail 2007 scout. I bought a EcoFlow delta 2 max. And then I got a renogy 1000w inverter I connected the ac out of the inverter to the EcoFlow ac charging point. I then connected the inverter supply cables directly to the battery inside under panel in floor. I know there is a battery outside in locker behind drivers side door. (Leisure batt) When I have the engine running and setup the inverter stops beeps and then carry’s on charging then it beeps and stops and carry’s on charging. Am I missing something ?

Thanks for this vedio I’m out side traveler , and I have delta pro , I was very confused between inverter or dc to dc victron , I know at the end I need inverter and I don’t want put dc to dc and inverter in my vehicle because to many wiring and dc to dc confusing . After watch your Video give me clear idea that I just need good amount watts like 2000 or 3000 inverter and easy hook up with eco flow and good to go , my question why you not add ground wire from car battery to inverter . ?

I've climbed up to Marions lookout, overlooking Cradle Mt. I haven't gone further on the track - I choose to watch videos of other people doing it. The climb up Barn Bluff looks similar in areas to the climb up Mt Murchison (I've done that - about 20 years ago).
