I am hoping some kind sole could please point me in the right direction with my Fogstar drift charging issue. I have a 105ah Drift on my Chausson Flash 10 Transit. Charging through the CBE onboard system I get about 17amps as indicated on the Fogstar app, (not totally reliable I know). This charges the hab battery (but not on lithium spec I know). I wanted to boost this charge rate, so I have fitted a Renogy DC-DC dual input 50A (solar disconnected at moment).
Using 16mm wiring all seemed good except that when charging from both the CBE onboard system and the Renogy DC-DC, the 60A breaker from the DC-DC charger trips when the DC-DC output is set to 50A. Fogstar app indicated max charging reached is about 40A, then 'click', no more from DC-DC. I have changed breakers, replacing the 60A with a new one, and for a trial even tried replacing the 60A with an 80A in the DC-DC line. Both 60A and 80A continue to trip even though the Fogstar app still indicates 40A charge then 'click'. I have reduced output on the DC-DC charger to 30A and max charge indicated on the Fogstar battery app is about 35A but no breaker tripping. As the spec for the battery indicates 100A max charge, where am I going wrong? Any suggestions most welcome. Thanks.
