Amp capacity for tow hitch 7 pin pwr ('07 SE0

[whalepirot]

What is the amperage capacity for the power feed pin in the 7pin Alpine socket?


In searching for a possible TOAD battery charger for our '19 Cherokee Trailhawk, I'm looking for the best permanently mounted charger and wire size to feed it, thru the Roadmaster harness, next week.

The Alpine's 7 pin socket >> the RM coiled wire adapts to a six pin.

...lots of discussion on this this issue...later vintage Alpines with Vansco comm. modules have limited amp output from PDMs so most owners just add a new wire of appropriate gauge with proper fusing on both ends to protect from direct short, to go directly from the coach batteries to the towed battery....the wire gauge of the coiled umbilical from the coach to towed could also be an issue...

RVI - Towed battery charger

This is what we bought for our (was new last year) 2018 Wrangler Works flawlessly since the day it was installed.

Cost $55.00 and I paid a RV shop 1/2 hour labor.

This approach seemst quite easy; the hard part becomes how to run the feed wire along with the coiled umbilical.

After installing the RM baseplate on the TOAD, surely this will be as simple.
