    DC to DC Charger?

    I tow a travel charger with my Yukon and I just installed a LifePo4 battery in the trailer. It seems that there are devices that will increase the voltage that is supplied to the trailer battery so that the LifoPo gets charged using the preferred charge voltage. Victron Energy has an "Orion"...
