Location of the B2B and battery charger.

[Barriesimpson]

I know this is a long shot, as I realize that not too many people own a Giottiline motorhome (I wonder why... ), but I would like to know where the B2B and the battery charger are likely to be installed on my van. The people who sold it to me don't know apparently ( ), and the Factory do not reply to emails. I have searched high and low but cannot find them. The leisure batteries are located under the lounge seat behind the co-pilot cab seat, as is the inverter, a fuse box and the solar MPPT. There is nothing under the passenger cab seat nor the drivers seat. The motor battery is under the floor just by the driver seat, but there is no room for said apparatus. I have the manuals for them, and the leisure batteries do charge while driving or plugged into EHU and the B2B logo comes up on the control panel, so they must be there somewhere. Any ideas guys 'n girls? (can you still say that?).

Can you not follow where the cables come from to the leisure batteries.

Logic says that the B2B will be installed in a cable run as short as possible between the starter battery and the leisure battery and in theory as close to the leisure one(s) as possible. If you have lithium the charge current will be as high as the B2B will permit so the cables should be substantial and fused at both battery ends.
As per grasscutter comments, tracing the cabling with the above in mind may be your best option.

If I have found the correct webpage on the Giottiline website, your motorhome looks similar layout to our Hymer Exsis 580.

The B2B is in the double floor space under the table. Accessed via a small hatch under the carpet.

The charger is in with the Truma heater in the double seat locker behind the table.
In our case it is partitioned off from the heater and has an external locker door.
