Off-Grid Power

A dual battery setup is the smartest way to power electronics from your vehicle. If you want to run a fridge, charge devices, power camp lights, or work from your vehicle, powering these accessories from a single start battery will not cut it and could leave you stranded. That is where a dual battery setup comes in. 

From weekend camping trips to off-grid worksites, reliable portable power can make all the difference. Whether you’re running a fridge, charging devices, or lighting up camp, a portable power solution gives you flexibility without draining your vehicle’s starter battery. 

Reliable off-grid power is essential for overlanding, camping, RVing, or working from your vehicle. Whether you’re running lights, a fridge, tools, or even luxuries like a coffee machine or TV, you’ll need an auxiliary battery to support your setup. 

When you’re off-grid, an inverter is the key to powering the gear that makes life easier. Whether it’s charging a laptop, running power tools, or brewing coffee at camp, a pure sine wave inverter converts your 12V DC battery power into the 110V AC power that household devices need. 

REDARC’s monitoring and control solutions range from compact Bluetooth devices to full vehicle management systems. Here’s how to choose the right option for your setup. 

When you rely on auxiliary batteries to power appliances off-grid, keeping them properly charged and monitored is critical. Unlike a basic charger, a Battery Management System (BMS) does more than charge -  it monitors battery health, manages multiple inputs, and optimizes charging for long battery life and reliable power. 

REDARC’s BCDC Trailer Charger range is designed to solve the challenge of charging trailer-mounted batteries through the 7-way connection. With purpose-built solutions tailored for different vehicles, terrains, and electrical systems, you can choose the right charger to keep your trailer powered in every condition. 

If you’re setting up a dual battery system, choosing the right BCDC charger is key. These chargers keep your auxiliary battery powered while you’re driving, so you can run your fridge, lights, and other gear without worrying about losing power. 

If you’re into camping, touring, or overlanding, chances are you run accessories like fridges, lights, or inverters when your vehicle isn’t running. To keep these powered without draining your main battery, many adventurers install a dual battery system.

If you tow an RV, camper trailer, horse trailer, boat trailer, or work trailer, chances are you rely on an onboard battery to run lights, pumps, fridges, winches, or tools. But keeping that trailer battery properly charged while you drive isn’t always simple. That’s why many setups now use a trailer battery charger. 

If you depend on auxiliary batteries to power your adventures, work, or equipment, keeping them charged and healthy is critical. But managing separate chargers, monitors, and regulators can be complicated. That’s where a battery management system (BMS) comes in. 

A good system is more than a fuel gauge for your battery. It shows exactly how much power you have, how it’s being used, and gives you the ability to manage devices and loads — so you never run flat unexpectedly. That’s where battery monitoring and control systems come in.
