Our current Hilux is from early 2020 with a 2.4D engine and has a built-in 100A alternator which is frankly quite underpowered to quickly charge our 2 * 12.8V 200Ah Liontron batteries. When I installed 3* Victron Smart Orion-Tr 12-12 30A DC-DC chargers, I could only use 2 of them at a time.
When I talked to the guy who sold us the car, to get an upgrade, I was told, there is no bigger alternator than 100A and no room for a 2nd alternator in the engine compartment. What a pity.
However, when I talked to Bruce from Safiery, he told me my Hilux could run their 250A alternator as well.
As I wanted to swap my batteries and upgrade to a 48V system anyway, I today ordered the alternator and along with it I went for a 3kW Scotty as well.
I am really curious of how this works out.
