DC to DC Charger Install for our Ram Promaster 2500. We knew that van life in the winter we would need more than just solar. And since we will be boon-docking we can't rely on shore power either. The Victron DC to DC charger was a no brainer and we've loved what's its done so far. It charges fast when running idly parked and driving.
UPDATE Sept 2022: We mounted the charger HORIZONTALLY - after comments and research. Better placement per Victron and our friendly commentors :) Thank you for watching! We also fixed the fuse issue! (no more comments lol). Its operating and working great. Please see comments below!

Michelle handled all of the electrical and this went pretty smooth after figuring out how to attach to battery and run correct amount of wire from front to back and through our benches.
Check out her install and what went right and wrong. Thanks for watching!
