    This video is a fascinating journey into a strange Australian alternate reality where wrenches are called spanners, hoods are called bonnets, and wires are earthed instead of grounded. Well done, and the presenter was very easy to understand.

Lemonade in both are used to refer a drink made from lemon, water and sugar (like a cordial) but in Aus it is referred to for a carbonated beverage that tastes like Sprite and 7 UP.

    This is an awesome guide for people who aren't sure about setting up their 4x4 or caravan etc. I watched this a few years ago when I was setting up my rig as I had no idea what I was doing. I keep coming back to this video for reference for add-ons to my current setup. Some great info about solar near the end too. You have kings selling solar kits to people who probably don't know about regulators and controllers and the staff have no idea how to advise technical setup. Great video!!

    This is by far the best explanation of a Dual Battery System installation I've seen.
    It's a long video but this bloke is articulate and gives enough detail to allow most people to get the job done.
    I ordered his battery and battery box plus wiring kit and it arrived in Maitland just two days later from Townsville!
    His kit is marginally dearer than some others on the market, but he got my business because he convinced me that with his kit, I could fit it up myself, and it was a piece of cake.
    I don't usually recommend one bit of gear over any other, but I am unusually impressed by both the video, and the supply of the kit.

    Videos like this one are why TH-cam rules! Over the past two decades of my life, I've walked into countless vehicle customization shops asking to build a system just like this. All I've ever gotten are blank stares, recommendations for unwanted products and generally no clue of what I was asking for. One technician actually sold me one of those Frankenstein throw switches, but that is the closest match by far. Finally! A real solution! I hate Facebook, but I'm actually going to like this guy's FB page. Well done. I hope he ships to the U.S.

      There are other options which he doesn't mention such as the diode based split charge units (old fashioned) and intelligent split charge units. The latter is fully equivalent to a DC-DC charger although wiring it up is more intrusive.

      @@alphaomega8373 Sure and you are quite right. He isn't the only one though - many of the "experts" keep banging on about DC-DC chargers when there are other options which are equally good and rather cheaper.

    That eye contact is 'intents'. I feel like I'm really in the room with him. Like a D&M after a solid drinking sesh over one of those glass outdoor tables.

      Sarajevo Valter Yes, as long as you keep all 4 auxiliary batteries connected in parallel to maintain the 12 volt system (if it is 12 volt?) and as long as the DC-DC charger is capable of handling Lithium batteries, which are unique when it comes to charging requirements.
