Gotta love Victron equipment, Ecoflow, and my Euhomy Fridge.

Pictures are worth so much when you can see what is happening.

200 watts of rooftop tent mounted solar, a 75/15 Victron solar controller, feeding the current Aft test AGM Battery. (The lithium doesn't arrive until Wednesday. )

20 amp battery isolation relay under the hood is now no longer required and will be removed. The 12 vdc to 12 vdc Victron Isolated converter supplies charging to the (AGM/Lithium) when the engine is running.

The Ecoflow is powered by this battery and the Euhomy fridge is powered by the ecoflow. The 12 CDC outlets and USB jacks are also powered by the aft battery.

Next item is to move the radio communications equipment power over to the aft battery.

Moved the shore power connector forward and utilized the old hole in the hard top for the new solar panel cables access gland

Mounted two new 100 watt solar panels. These currently supply the Ecoflow River Maxx, but will mover to the new victron MPPT 75-15 Bluetooth solar controller once the LiFeP04 100 ah battery arrives.

The battery will be the base of the new habitability power system. It will be powered by Victron Solar and a starting battery tie via a 20 amp DC auto relay and a Victron DC/DC-18 (18 amp isolated DC to DC) which will act like a DC Battery charger to the lithium battery when the jeep is running.

The output of the battery will power the current array of 12 vdc courtesy outlets and USB charging ports. A dedicated breaker circuit will be deployed for the car fridge and a second for the Starlink POE injector

Diagrams are in the works. Everything is Bluetooth monitor able.
