So the alternator charger charges it at higher rare than the cig socket. Thanks.

I linked your post to the Battery Box links I maintain here.
So I got the Delta 2 power station and got the alternator charger. All you need to do to connect is one cable that has positive to positve of the battery with the fuse they proveide inbetween, negative to a chassis grounding point.. theres one right next to the postivive battery point that factory is using to ground some stuff already. On the other end of that cable connect to alternator charger box with one plug.. then another cable plugs into the alternator charger box and goes straight to the side charging point on the Delta 2 power station. Connect it all up with the ecoflow app and you can control and monitor charge from there.. Itll give me 20% charge on the delta 2 power station in like 20 mins of around town driving.

Im sure more electrical savvy people would tell me how to connect the wires to the bus bar.. but I didnt know which slots I could connect to and if possible.

Also mounter the alternator charger box to the factory location for the CTEK charger that comes with the factory dual battery setup.

Thanks for that. I am not buying one but added to my battery box list. I just wanted to make sure I got the details correct.
If you are interested in the ecoflow stuff.. wait till black friday.. just a month ago they had a big sale and i got the delta 2 power station and alternator charger at 46% off! Im sure they will do similar black friday sale.

Any vacant slot on the busbar, you’ll just need to install an appropriate fuse. Looking good regardless!

My Ecoflow Alternator Charger arrived today and I'm trying to figure out where to mount it. The bracket for the factory CTEK charger seems a flimsy to me. It your alternator charger bouncing all around or did your support the side where everything plugs into?

Yeah its definitely not a permanent solution.. was an easy mounting spot from straight out of the box that atleast kept it from sliding about, for now I have a simple wedge under the side with all the cables. A more solid bracket definitely needs to be figured out.
 
Can you charge the EcoFlow in your car or do you need the additional EcoFlow alternator charger?
Hey Doc just got my EcoFlow yesterday. Yes it comes standard with a cigarette lighter charger cable (I bought the 800w charger though as it will charge about 10 times faster and also allows reverse charge of the main battery)

At First I wondered why you removed the seats but trying to fit mine today I now know why :-O What a nightmare :-O to top it all off all of the bolts on mine were done with the Green Locktite 290 (pretty sure I broke one of the brackets just undoing one of the torx bolts). and then you get to the bolts at the back seat and 2 are T50's but the other 4 are Security T50's

Fitting mine I can see that the mount goes a lot further back. My plan is to move the large positive cable underneath and then mount the EcoFlow to the holes at the back for more support (see attached)
