Finished my Aux battery install, I used the CTEK 250SA DC to DC charger which feeds my 100 AH battery. This feeds the 3000 Watt inverter, a Switch bank for aux components, and a 12V and USB charge points located on the control panel. I still need to improve the control panel as I feel the plastic was to thin for my needs. I added the battery blue tooth sensor with app but I will prob remove it as my battery went down over 20% since it was installed. I will see how it works when I add the solar panel to the CTEK later in the week.

I have the same set up with Ctek 250 and the sense app. The drop in battery is defo not the Ctek sensor. Might be worth a look at the calibration on the app?

Sorry, no pics

I was taking out the trash today when my neighbor stopped me to ask about the Bronco. I told him what the hold up was so he wanted to look for himself.
15 minutes later my neighbor’s friend showed up with a saws all and he cut the last remaining bolt off. Within minutes we had the engine for transmission laying on the ground.
Tomorrow I am tackling my steering gear box, and getting my interior prepped for the transmission to go back in. I should have a runner next week if everything goes as planned.

Its working fine now think the batteries were needing a charge, reading about the battery sense it needs to be connected a bit to get learn your battery and give an accurate reading.
