Hi,
I’m looking for some advice, having trouble finding the answer online...
I have just begun RV life and as I do not have a solar panel system setup yet, I’m finding my battery system a little small for the electricity requirements. So when I’m parked at a friends house, I’d like to have my mains power battery charger running while I use the electrics. I’ll add a solar panel at some stage, but in the meantime, I’m wondering if anybody can tell me if it’s safe (or not) to charge my house battery while using it at the same time with a single stage charger? Am I likely to do damage to anything in the system?
the system is:
120ah AGM battery
20A smart charger (can’t remember the brand, please let me know if it’s important I state the model)
2000w pure sine wave inverter
MacBook laptop
Basic Computer monitor
5v phone charger running from the inverter.
Engel fridge (MR40)
Arlec BC581 compact charger (single stage)
Electric Coffee grinder
Blender
Battery powered Vacuum cleaner
thanks for any input! I’m betting there are a tonne of technical pitfalls to know here...
