• Adding Wiring for Braking System With a 2006 Jeep Wrangler.
• In order to get 12V for your battery charger, you will only need to splice wires. You would want to us the 4-Pole Loop with Cover # HM47115, cut off one connector and splice it into the RoadMaster 6-Wire Trailer Connector # RM-910030-7. For an adapter you would then want to use the Hopkins Endurance Flex-Coil Trailer Connector Adapter - 7-Way to 6-Pole # HM47053. I've added a couple links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at.

• Power Source for Fan/Heater in Dressing Room on Enclosed Trailer
• Since your power station is starting to fade I recommend replacing it. You can either use the same system (if you feel like it was working well for your application) or you can use a 12V battery and charge it with the CTEK MULTI US 7002 12-Volt Universal Battery Charger # CTEK56353. This charger will begin to run a pulse maintenance once it senses that your battery is fully charged. You will need to do some calculating but you may be able to use your current 12V battery. Just be sure...

• Can I Use the 7-Way Connector On My Vehicle To Power the Redarc BCDC
• The Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger # 331-BCDC1225D does require running a heavy gauge wire that will directly connect to the alternator or battery on your tow vehicle. Unfortunately in this case your 7 pin connector will not provide enough power to properly power the BCDC charger and keep your batteries fully charged. With that said, this charger can easily be mounted on your trailer and will provide a great source of charging for your off-road trailer since it doesn't just provide...

• What Is The Maximum Runtime for etrailer 4,500 Watt RV Generator for 1/4 Load?
• The 4,500-Watt Portable RV Generator - 3,600 Running Watts - Propane or Gas - Electric Start # 333-0005 puts out 3,600 watts. At 1/4 load the maximum runtime hasn't been tested but is likely similar to the 14 hours because of fuel consumption. The amps used for a cell phone is around 11 watts and a laptop around 100 watts. The idle speed is the consistent running so the output is the 3,600 watts. If you are only running the computer and phone charger, then you definitely could use a...

• Power Supply Options for the Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel
• I do have some options for you. But the Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4135K does not provide any actual power, that would come from your battery bank, shore power or generator. The # PD4135K distributes out the power provided to the panel and uses shore power to recharge your batteries. The best set-up will depend on your goals. If you plan to camp at RV parks then you would just need a power cord like the Mighty Cord RV Power...

• Options For Charging Starting Car Battery With No Access To AC Power
• I do have a potential solution for you. We do not recommend using the NOCO Genius charger and Jackery power bank combination. The battery bank will only last so long, and would require regular recharging. Also, it is not recommended to use a power bank in a confined space like that, especially unattended in a garage or basement. So not only would this be unsafe, this would not be a viable solution for long term charging. You may be able to use a setup like that on an as-needed basis, basically...

• Battery Isolation Solenoid Installation on a Cab Over Camper
• A deep cycle battery can be used in this scenario with no problems as long as it is wired properly. A deep cycle battery is capable of longer run times, more amp hours = better battery, and more charging cycles for deep discharges. I recommend using a Group 24, 28, or 32 Deep Cycle battery. Wiring your truck battery to a secondary 12v Deep Cycle battery through the Battery Isolation Solenoid # PK5231201, will prevent the cab over camper from drawing power from your truck battery when it...

• Recommended Braking System For Flat Towing A 2020 Chevy Sonic
• Miles will not be added to your odometer because your 2020 Chevy Sonic has an electronic odometer that only tracks mileage when the vehicle is running. You won't have the vehicle running so no need to worry about any mileage. State laws and even county/city laws could affect you're ability to go without a braking system so you would need to look into the laws of every area you plan to tow through. The dry weight on a 2020 Chevy Sonic is around 2921lbs so if you put anything into it you...
