CTEK D250SA Dual Battery System Charger Review

A comprehensive look at the awesome Ctek D250sa DC-DC battery charger and isolator w/ built in MPPT solar controller. In this video I talk about my experience with it over the last year, why I chose it over a VSR (Voltage Sensative Realay) split charge system, Installation and wiring, and I go over some other DC-DC charger options from cheaper to more expensive.
Hopefully you find this video helpful if you are looking into putting together your own auxiliary battery system on your camper van, overland build or RV.
