How To Charge AGM Batteries In An Enclosed Trailer
Question:
I have been told there is a system that will use the rotation of my trailer wheels to charge my store batteries in my trailer. Can you please tell me about this?

Expert Reply:
I do have a battery charger for the batteries in your enclosed trailer but I am not aware of a device that uses energy from the rotation of the trailer's wheels for this. The best option we can offer you is the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger part # 331-BCDC1225D for a 75 to 200 amp hour battery bank or part # 331-BCDC1240D for a 200+ amp hour battery bank.
The Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger uses power from the vehicle's alternator to charge your trailer batteries which is the most effective means of doing so. This device will also work to prevent overcharging and it will work with your AGM batteries so there will be no issues here. The only other thing you will need is wiring, part # BDW20026 will work just fine.
