Fitting a Sterling Alternator to Battery Charger - layouts?

Post by MarkyMarkJ »

In preparation for the imminent arrival of our '84 Vanagon from the US, I'm planning to buy a Sterling Alternator to Battery Charger - http://campervanculture.com/shop/sterli ... r-12v-80a/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
This will then be coupled to a setup that includes a Waeco CRX50 fridge, multiple 12v sockets and 12v led lighting.

I've rewired our Splitscreen (which we've now sold) in a similar way, but the T25 has a very different layout.
I'm a stickler for a neat and tidy (read: invisible) installation, and so I'm keen to see what everyone else has found to be a good place to mount the charger, and run the wiring.

Anyone care to share their setups?

Did you find a solution for this?
My ABC130 is under the seat but it's so big it's a squeeze with all the mega fuses and heavy duty cabling which was needed to reduce voltage drop and cope with the high current load. I had to put the 12v charger under the other seat with the 12v fuse and distribution but I didn't like loosing the under seat space. Sorry no pics I've had to remove the whole lot for welding work.
