Ah, with you. You may want to consider a second battery and a split
charger circuit for that lot, although you'll probably never get near
drawing the full current they could take. A higher spec alternator
mightn't go amiss if you really want to crank it up.


hmm, what is a split charger circuit? I´m norwegian and not that steady

in
english


They're used in mobile homes and caravans which have fridges and other
gadgets. A second battery is used to run these (when there's no mains
electricity) and connected in so that it can be charged by the
alternator along with the main battery, but it cannot discharge the main
battery (I hope this makes sense!) These are referred to as "split
charger circuits" but I think they consist of a relay or two.

Okay then I know what it is.

Thanks again
