Charging a power station from my leisure battery 12V supply

Any thoughts on the easiest way to get an ignition live feed to under my driver's seat?

But not sure how to do so physically - My passenger seat is quite full with leisure battery, Dc-DC charger and diesel heater feed so not easy to move it for access.

Is it bad to run the D250SE without the smart alternator cable connected?

I have the same version....

But am away and remote from any devices.... I can only see them via VRM.

I'll check mine when I'm back....

How far back can you go?

You should have an IGN feed connected to the CTEK.

That will stop it draining the starte battery when the engine is not on.

On the T6 you can fuse a fuse tap on the center line of fuses. Then run the wire under the carpet around the edges to the seat base.

The OEM route is via the wire tunnel down the middle, it then splits two ways to feed both seat bases.
