Hello, I'm new to the site & want to say thanks in advance to any help offered. Here's my project. I have a trailer that I pull that I'm putting a 12v crane on. It will have it's own battery to run on. I want to be able to plug it into the truck's power when connected so it will charge the battery. My concern is that if the battery is drained fairly low, when connecting it, it will draw too much power and blow a fuse. And I don't want to have to run huge battery cable all the way back there. Is there a device that would limit the flow of current to a desired level, such as 15 or 20 amps, so I could use a #12 wire? This might also be better for the trailer battery than dumping a huge amount of amps into it all at once. Thanks again.
