I have the Genisis gen 3 dual battery setup. I also have a Bluetti Elite 200 V2

Does anyone have this set up or see any issues before I connect the Charge 1 up to my Genisis dual battery set up.

My Gladiator is a gas Rubicon I'd that makes a difference.

I wish I had know they were teaming up with Red arc before I had purchased all this, but I did need the portability of the Bluetti v 200.

Thanks in advance for any help

I do not have the Bluetti elite however I do have a 100ah battery under the rear seat and using a victron dc-dc behind the Genesis Gen 3. No issues. I ran a 6awg cable from the secondary genesis battery to the victron. I wanted a completely separate system to run my fridge, comms, etc. the genesis secondary runs the lights and winch. Hope this makes sense and helps.

Thanks that does help. Did you attach straight to one of the batteries or to a lug under the cover on the genisis?

Attaching to the lugs under the cover puts you on the secondary battery for sure and is separate from your starting battery. The secondary battery will support your Blueitti. which in turn supports your equipment…Jack
