All you need is two 25 ft pieces of welding cable to reach from your truck battery to the ftont of the trailer to the winch and trailer controls.I use welding clamp ends on the truck end and twist connectors on the trailer end.No need to run any cables through the truck or trailer frame.My 30 footer also has a 12 volt battery,but the factory told me I didn't really need it with two batteries in my duramax truck. My bumper pull trailer uses the same thing.The voltage is actually higher from my truck batteries through the cable than a battery at the winch or tail control.I've hauled tractors for 40 years with trailers and this has always worked.It's better to have two fresh batteries from the truck to use than a maybe charged battery on the trailer.It takes a long time to charge a battery through that little charge wire in the connector.It might be ok if you use your trailer enough to keep it charged up.I always carry one of those battery booster packs from napa in case a tractor won't start or if I'm to lazy to connect the cables to my truck battery.I just hook the booster to my winch and tail controls and it works fine that way also.
