REDARC Launches New Overlanding Power Kits – DIY Power Solutions
Luke Cuenco 11.05.24
For many overlanders or people like me who just want to get a tiny bit of extra utility out of their expensive truck camping rig, REDARC is a brand that frequently comes to mind. While they’ve built a solid reputation in the industry for their brake controllers, dual battery systems, and batteries, REDARC has recently expanded their lineup to include new Touring Overlanding Power Kits and the innovative BCDC Alpha power management system. I’ve begun experimenting with some of this new gear myself and I think that if you’re looking to put some aftermarket electronic gear on your truck, REDARC is at least worth checking out if not for their global reputation alone.
