Hi Everyone,
My AGM battery is nearing end of life and I like to replace it with a LifePo4 80Ah battery. It is for a Marco Polo V250 2018 model.
Because the Start/Stop battery is not going to be replaced and to get a better charge for the LifePo4 battery a booster has to be installed.
My mind is set on the, Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC 12/12 30A. No moving parts meaning no sound and due to the LifePo4 battery that is much smaller there should be space available under the seat.
My question is the following, the booster charger has 4 connectors *if you take the isolated version (Not sure if a none isolated version is better)
How difficult can it be to connect?! Seems to be quite difficult as searching online didn't give me any clear answers. I understand there is a relais that connects the leisure battery and the start/stop.
Question is, where can I get the power from to use as an input for the Orion? Do I need to remove the relais or can I just extend the current battery cables as an input?
Hope you have experience and can help me that would be great and images speak a 1000 words.
