ROAMS01E30 National Luna DC-DC25A Greenbox Installation (2019)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 พ.ย. 2019
- It was finally time to start looking at some power solutions, and the National Luna DC-DC 25A system is one serious power house. Having a built in Solar regulator and the ability to charge an auxiliary battery through my alternator is seriously going to level up my Overlanding game! We look at how we run the cables through the Jimny and install their new Portable Power Pack with the built in DC-DC. And to top it off we also put in the brand new National Luna Legacy 50L dual control fridge; which is really amazing! I hope you learn something new in the video and get some idea and inspiration for your own builds!

I have watched almost all the videos about the Jimny project.
Really nice collection.
Good luck with your work !!!
Exciting stuff!! Have a safe and epic adventure!
Thanks buddy! Episode 1 launches soon!
Got almost the same setup in the Jimny, but with a NL60 twin wich is quite a bit bigger than the fridge shown in this setup. Second battery is installed behind the driver side seat. (NL60 is probably the biggest you can go in a Jimny that is just big enough for 2 people for a week before supplies run out :) )
Simply and cool! 😎👍
Thanks for the information, good installation let the professionals do it
After the okes who did my lighting stuffed it up so much; I was really grateful to get some real pro’s on the electrics this time
Nice and good luck
Another informative episode, cheers
👌🏻👌🏻 I learned a lot making this video!
Thanks for Sharing this battery system gives me ideas for my Rav4 build
Its nice to have a system like this if you have a caravan/trailer, or boat and a 4x4 where you can just move it from one vehicle to another; and you dont have to have a seperate kit installed in each if you dont want.
@@RoamOverlanding thats what I was thinking about with having the Rav build , my Fortuner and the camp trailer build and caravan , with this system I will always have power doesnt matter where we go , and can make it that it works in both cars and both camping arrangements
Wow.. cool.. 👍
Love the setup! Been curious for a while, what are the glasses you're wearing?
Hey Jacob! I have no idea what brand they are 😂 their modeled off Oliver Peoples, except more robust. My Oliver Peoples frames broke in half, and these ones were half the price 👌🏻
Please make a video about your TAIL DRAG TABLE. I notice it while you described the fridge.
I never found on line any table for the new Jimny.
Will do soon! Still finalizing the design abit 👌🏻
Its crazy how some countries call things by a different name, I was scratching my head wondering what a Brand Harrison plug was o.O turns out it’s what we call Anderson plugs haha
We call it both here 😂
Awe
Great info. What Battery dit you put in the green box?
National Luna put a 115AH AGM Battery in it. Amazing performance; but I think I want to try find a lighter option for the final setup! AGM is great for a bakkie; but 32KG for a Jimny is a hell of a lot.
Hey, Just wondering when you are getting that little cupboard you spoke about for where all your plugs etc. will be stored, and where does it come from? We are also looking at a dual battery system for our Jimny and are worried about the space the box will take up, so a better solution would be amazing. Thanks
Hey Dale! You will have to wait a little bit longer; That might be revealed before Christmas; but it will most probably be a 2020 video; you might see some photos and sneak peaks on instagram over the last bit of December
Looks great and I'm always interested in upgrades for cars like the Jimny or the Pajero Mini that I drive. At the same time I'm totally confused by this video. What's the end goal? Continuous eating of fresh food while you drive? Transporting frozen goods? Just not sure how these add-ons will contribute to the functionality of the car. I use mine mostly for hunting and camping etc. so that's my context. Just wondering what yours is.
Its just to keep food stuffs fresh and have a bit of a luxury of having an ice cold beer or juice out there! Im not all about function and running naked in the wild. I enjoy a certain amount of nice to haves (Hence I have an awning and Rooftop tent :P )
@@RoamOverlanding fair enough. But won't it be a bit tight loading a deer carcass next to that thing? :)
Just as well I dont hunt then :P
Love your Jimmy! Are you still going to keep it?
Unfortunately it was sold a couple months ago
Don't you think that you would need to upgrade the alternator capacity to charge two batteries?
I will be working on my new gen 3 Jimny overland build soon, but want 2 spare wheels, is it a concern only having one for you?
Im not phased by only having one at the moment; but if I did a trailer setup I would put an additional spare on it for extra long trips.
Did you modify the back door to open out more?
Yeah; I have an extended Gas Shock from Bushtech Aluminum canopies.
how does the battry luna recharge.. is it from dual solunoid or solar can i use it to charge drones camera batteries cell phones while outdoor thanks
It’s a dc-dc charger that uses your alternator to charge your secondary battery at stable charge rate up to 25A/hour, it can also charge via solar with its built in MPPT. On the green box you see here, you have some cigarette lighter outputs for 12v accessories as well as USB outlets. So you can charge whatever can use this. If you want you can get a small 300W inverter that plugs in with a cigarette lighter and charge 220v stuff 👌🏻 and obviously that battery box can hold up to a 115AH battery in it
It’s killing me that I can’t own a new Jimny! Suzuki please come back to America🙏
Can you provide the link / company details you got your car vinyl done? I would like to do the same on mine. thanks in advance!
Awesome vehicle! Who is doing your gullwings? Are they custom made?
They will be custom made by Bushtech Aluminum Canopies; but will be available as a DIY install kit
@@RoamOverlanding They have a website....been trying to get some made for my Hummer H2...I think that will be a game changer for your vehicle. I hear awesome things about the Suzuki...never see them here very rare...i live in Jeep country USA. Im tracking your build...might get one one day.
Thanks for sharing, by any chance can you share who did the drawers system.
It’s a company called Bushtech Aluminium Canopies 👌🏻
@@RoamOverlanding Thanks, would be nice if you share a video, with the set-up and ideas.. thanks
Diego Castro there is one on how I pack the vehicle and you get to see it nicely; perhaps you have seen it?
@@RoamOverlandingAwesome, I will take a look. Thanks!
3:57 is a perfect example how not to crimp. Hope this was sponsored content and you didn't have to pay for this install.
Whats your opinion of the Green box?
Love it! Now that I am selling the Jimny and getting a bigger vehicle you will definitely see more of it.
how much does it weight? looks quite heavy..like Jimny `cause of it`s so light weight, reminds me first gen. RAV4..I like small cars, but usually have problems with my 1.9m..
The weight will depend on your battery 👌🏻 the system works with everything including lithium so it could weight 32kg like this one or 12kg with a lithium 👍🏻
@@RoamOverlanding nothing tragic..keep on going! I need to wait some time to can afford to buy a Jimny. Nowadays, as a Toyota fan driving LC90, such a great built car. But your Jimny is in the very style I would like to have. Perfect. Greets from Slovakia
I think you should consider replacing your existing stock alternator to more powerful one, for example 105amp one. Other-vice your alternator will be chronically overloaded and your batteries will be chronically uncharged. No relay or other electronic fiture will change this, only more powerful alternator.
Something to consider, perhaps get a sealed alternator too
well, according to my offroad competition experience and practice, there's no need to isolate(seal) alternator, even if it occasionally will be submerged under water it will survive. And believe me, Jimney is not an "off-road trophy" vehicle, meaning that it's not intended for sitting in swamps or mud- or waterholes for hours without bad consequences. And from other side - it is too light, so when you place proper offroad tires in, it won't going to dig in swamp or sink in mud, you'll gonna float over it. But that's in case you'll have enough power from engine and enough gear ratio in your TC.
@@DimitrosSJ Good advice, Thanks Dimitros
Stay safe out there!
@@RoamOverlanding yep, we are extremely safe at the moment, covid19 things, you know..
dose your fridge slide lock
It locks closed yes, just not open at the moment. We are working on the perfect locking system for it
Aw man why? I have a hummer h2....i want a jimmy just because of your videos. What did you buy? My dream id to ship my vehicle thier and do a tour of lower west/south/east africa,
Go watch the new videos to see what I got 😊 thanks a mighty awesome dream!!
How many liters is that fridge?
50L
@@RoamOverlanding Thanx for the reply bro. Love your videos😍😍😍😍😘
No worries brother! Thanks for watching!
How much does this system cost to buy and install?
Hey Lee, I think its about R12,000 at the moment.
Shouldn't the 2nd battery be in the motor compartment ? It's taking up a lot of space like this ...
It doesn’t have space in the front 😣
@@RoamOverlanding th-cam.com/video/fbf3xBqP7Lw/w-d-xo.html , in England it does ... :)
Pricing? And offers or discount codes? Perhaps the suppliers need to do that now for the publicity you giving them.
Hey bud! The product is brand brand new; so you will need to get in touch with National Luna, either through their website or on any social media platforms 👌🏻 hopefully someday I’ll get some discount codes for you guys 🤟🏻
Hi Pieter, this video is primarily about the Dual Battery system; and the Green Box was only announced just the other day. The fridge has been available for a good couple months now as you mentioned; thanks for linking to it.
Does this unit have car batteries in it?
No you need to put in a battery
@@RoamOverlanding Is there space within the unit to house the batteries?
Thank you!
@@englishforsrilanka2535 yes
@@RoamOverlanding Thank you!
Дик ю хьон
Wow that intro music volume blew my ears off.
Sorry bud; it has a tendency to do that sometimes. Its abit wild. xD Changing it from next week though. So Last time, I promise! :D
@@RoamOverlanding It's that extra battery. ^^
😂😂
Чувак тебе пора на диету садится ,а то скоро в джимни не влезишь;)
Та ладно, и не такие влазят ещё, в старый, а этот - новый, попросторней будет немного. Так шо усе гуд.
