Just ordered my 2024 and was looking for reviews - stumbled upon this channel and couldn’t be more pleased. Subscribed immediately. Looking forward to more outback wilderness content.

I have a '15 outback I travel out of, with a mattress over the 3/4 seat, this seems like something I'd want to try but would that area being "covered" effect it's temperature/working ability? Or does the area need to stage "open"

Extreme temps will always impact any setup. Normal temps wouldn't impact the setup in my opinion. If it's really hot you will definitely want to give it some ventilation.

bear in mind, if you're driving down the highway and the ecu decides to cut the smart alternator output to less than 12.8V, it won't be charging the auxiliary battery at all until the alternator boosts back up to 13.3V. i'd still recommend a decent dc-dc charger for vehicles with smart alternators to get the benefits of: 1. always charging (no low voltage cut off, can step up or down the voltage from the alternator as needed) 2. limited current output (AGM batteries only like to be charged at about 0.2C-0.3C ... so 20-30A for a 100Ah battery, e.g. and it's also easier on the alternator) 3. multi-stage charge profiles (alternators don't usually charge the starter battery up to 100% anyway)

Appreciate the input. I have a dc to dc charger, but I wanted to see how well this works for the people who would prefer this option over an isolator. Once I get a good test of the system and we see how it works i'll swap over to the dc to dc and give that a go as well.

@@roamingwithjosh actually now I'm curious ... I'll try to get some voltage output logs from my '17 FXT later to see how often it actually dips below 12.8V in city driving.

looks good dude. whenever i get around to getting a tire swing im looking forward to taking advantage of all the extra space in the spare tire well! also i'd recommend a dremel or similar for cutting through plastic in the future. much better than using a blade haha

Little bit of an ocd question. Do you find your car sits a tad higher on right front? Was thinking of upgrading suspension and keep seeing a slightly higher ride height only of passenger front when I measured. Its very slight. 1/4 inch or less.
@roamingwithjosh
@roamingwithjosh 2 года назад
lol I don't know why you just said that to me... I'm going to avoid even looking because if I do catch a glance of either side sitting higher then it's going to send me into a total blackout!

Stupid question but why did you not use the 12v outlet in the boot?
@roamingwithjosh
@roamingwithjosh Год назад
the 12v outlets only work when the car is on so when I'm parked overnight I needed another solution to run the various components.

Have to say I am not excited with this dual battery setup. You could have run a lithium battery in the rear of the car being charged by a Redarc DC charger. Key benefits would be lithium batteries are a third of the weight and you can take them down to 90% discharged instead of AGM which only allows for 50% discharged. Some lithium batteries have a bluetooth enabled BMS (battery management system) where you can see on your mobile app things like current draw, charging rate, number of cycles, depth of discharge and health of the battery. I have successfully run this configuration in two different cars since 2018.

@roamingwithjosh 4 месяца назад
Its also much more expensive. I have no issue with lithium or redarc, but price can be a problem for some.

@OverlandingNow, I've been watching and researching all types of auxiliary battery systems,I'm also thinking about a auxiliary battery system too, I'm thinking about a Dakota lithium starter battery it's spendy, and a auxiliary lithium battery in back, also looking at a 85w hood solar panel, very much appreciated your time and effort to bring us your install, very informative and helpful 👍 love your channel, OH by the way I have a 2013 Subaru forester 2.5 limited, hope to cross paths someday while traveling abroad during camping and overlanding, keep doing what your doing, stay safe and safe travels brahda 👍 🤙✌ 👊

Right on! Glad the video could be helpful and we appreciate the kind words! The Dakota batteries are definitely solid, but I think for the majority of people something along these lines is more reasonable so I went with these for the install. Good luck on the project and let me know how it turns out!

If the battery is not well ventilated its very dangerous. When the battery is charging it will emit hydrogen gas.

I've since removed my dual battery. A solid AGM battery with a reliable power station will do the trick for most people. This is the power station I use and I charge it off the 12v in the car while driving bit.ly/43crmHs
