Lithium Aux Battery Upgrade, chasing advice Victron vs Redarc

Broadly speaking , it is a simplified version of the various Redarc Prime and Rogue TVMS offerings.
And a lot less expensive than the prime. The rogue doesnt handle input/output to/from both batteries, dcdc charger, mppt, solar, etc either from the looks of it.

I like how simple it makes a simple diy like what I want. Pick a dcdc charger, mppt, and house battery and then it all gets wired along with the starter to this hub along with up to ~150 amps of accessories to be powered (fused) off the house battery.

The Rogue is really an extension of the basic Project Manager 30 and TVMS Prime, to give them more power and flexibility. Rogue can be daisy chained for more options. I think the Rogue can be used on its own, but it is not very often. The new ALPHA black range offers even more flexibility with Readrac's TVMS system, many of the Redarc products can work together.

This video gives a little insight into what it can do. Make sure you look at the Paltium Package (second link)

That represents way more expense and complexity than I want to take on for this project, but i do like redarcs stuff in general.

I should have been clearer, the Redarc can go from simple to complex like that bells and whistles Platinum project. Get whatever best suits the project. I did not mean to suggest it would work for you.

I have been looking at the Redarc TVMS lately and was blown away by how flexible it was. My hybrid caravan comes with the Project Manager 30, TVMS Prime and the Rogue.
