Maverick Campers Operations Manual 2021
P R O J E C T A C H A R G E R
Almost all Maverick Camper models are fitted with a Projecta 16amp Battery Charger. Our charger is more than just a
product that charges the batteries. It is a complete battery management system that protects your batteries gives them
the best chance of performing at peak performance for many years to come. It will also manage power charging from
solar panels and blankets, 240v and your vehicle alternator via the Anderson plug at the front of the trailer or van

Most importantly, the Master Power Switch on the control panel must be on to allow the charger to charge your
batteries:
-
For fixed solar panels on Hybrids
– Ensure the Master Power switch is on, the van is already wired to take
power from the solar panels mounted on the roof through the charger (please note that in triple battery sets up
may have a different brand of charger that is 30amp in size)
-
For solar blankets on Hybrids or Campers
– Connect the solar blanket to the Anderson plug located on the a
frame of the trailer or van. The charger will handle the unregulated power and convert it into regulated 12v
power to charge your batteries. The Master Power Switch on the Control Panel must be on
-
For vehicle alternator charging on Hybrids and Trailers
– Connect the Anderson plug at the front of the trailer
or van to the Anderson plug (if installed) at the rear of your vehicle and ensure the car is running and the Master
Power Switch on the control panel of the trailer or van is on
-
For 240v charging on hybrids and trailers
– This can be done in two different ways depending on the features of
your trailer and the location of the battery charger. If you model has an external 15amp power inlet you can
purchase a 15amp to 10amp converter (Bunnings sell one called a mini amphibian) to allow you to plug or trailer
or van directly into a 240v socket. See image on next page.
