Victron Smart Shunt
This system includes a Victron smart shunt. This enables you to precisely monitor the charge level of your battery box, consumed energy and time until the battery is empty. You can as well monitor the battery voltage and when everything is connected to your car, it works for the start battery voltage also. All this information will be conveniently available on your apple or android smart phone through the Victron Connect App.
REDARC BCDC1240 Battery Charger
TheREDARC BCDC1240Dis a 12V 40A In-vehicle DC to DC battery charger. It features the next generation in REDARC DC to DC in-vehicle charging technology, charging from Solar and DC inputs simultaneously with additional features that make it the most advanced dual battery charger on the market. Featuring a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) solar regulator, the BCDC1240D will charge from both solar and the alternator simultaneously. With built-in 'Green Power Priority' it will select solar charging first, meaning less load on the alternator.
Amptron Lithium Battery
AMPTRON® 12V 100Ah Lithium LiFePO4 Blade Batteries are an alternative replacement (AR) for most applications currently using a deep cycle Gel, AGM or Flooded Lead Acid battery. The maximum continuous discharge current is 175A and peak discharge current 320A for 3 seconds.
EGON DC Hub
EGON DC Hub is a unique cost saving device designed to eliminate the expertise needed for vehicle-based DC wiring builds. All components are wired to this single central hub, including AC chargers, solar panels, and DC-chargers. From the same unit are wires run to all accessories, such as fridges, lights, compressors and more. This can all be done without the need of crimps, lugs, shrinks or expertise. All the time-consuming works is done for you!
It connects all elements of a DC installation, including first battery, auxiliary batteries, DC-DC, alternator, solar, DC-DC and other charging devices.
The idea of a dual battery system is to have all (or most) of your accessories connected to the second battery besides your starter battery. As your accessories use power from the second battery the isolator prevents power from draining from your main starting battery leaving it ready for you to start your vehicle when needed. When you start your vehicle, the isolator senses the charge from your alternator and links the 2 batteries together and charges them as you drive.

Why should I buy Lithium instead of AGM?
Lithium has more usable energy in comparison, is lighter and lasts longer which is an advantage for this Battery System. As well AGM Batteries are sensitive to depth of discharge. This means the deeper the battery is discharged, the fewer cycles it has. AGM Batteries are generally recommended to only be discharged to 50% of their capacity to maximize their cycle life. A Lithium (LiFePO4) Battery, on the other hand, is not affected much by depth of discharge so it boasts a much longer cycle life. Its DOD of 80-90% means a longer life circle and cheaper in the long run. Find here a detailed comparison on the Victron Energy blog.
