The wiring from the truck system to the Orion should be the only truck connection to the camper unless you are intending to be able to charge the truck from the camper. To do that with proper control you would want manual switching - not an isolator. Assuming you are not trying reverse charge, the Orion acts as an isolator preventing reverse charging through its input wires so you don’t need or want an additional isolator. You should consider installing larger positive and negative charging wiring from the truck battery to the Orion, and locate the Orion as close to your camper battery as practical. I have an Orion 12/12-30 30 amp charger, and I ran 6 awg wires for the entire run. The engine running detection logic prevents charger cycling at 30 amps with a 30 foot wire run between the truck battery and the charger. You would want 4 awg if you want to take advantage of the Orion XS’ full 50 amp capability. -
