I'm looking to fit a 400 watt 40 volt panel and I was thinking of a Victron SmartSolar mppt 100V 20 amp controller as I can mount it out of the way and then see the voltages/current via bluetooth. I would prefer not have the controller and wires on display. Not a 'smart' alternator vehicle (2009 Ducato) and both batteries will be lead acid.
The question is what is the best way to top up the van battery when the leisure battery is full? Could I use a split charge relay in reverse (ie when leisure battery is at 13.8V then van battery gets some charge)?
Any ideas?
Thanks
