Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

Hmm... I don't see the attachments. I will try to sort that out. Keep us posted on what you end up doing...I'm thinking of doing the same thing at some point in the future. Good info all! Sure... I spoke with quite a few different folks and read tonnes of stuff on line. Finally made decisions. We do...

Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

Here is another member's photos with the blue sea system I posted: http://www.delica.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=16536&p=127042&hilit=blue+sea#p127042 Both operate on the same principle: combine the batteries for charging above ~14V, and separate batteries when the main battery drops ...

Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

For simplicity, I'd recommend a Voltage Sensitive Relay rather than an isolator switch. You simply connect your two batteries together- negative to negative directly, and positive to positive through the VSR. When one battery is above 14V the VSR connects them together (like when the engine is runn...

Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

https://www.bluesea.com/products/7650/Add-A-Battery_Kit_-_120A Similar idea to BEP marine but also includes the switch so you can combine both batteries. The blue sea kit is very popular with the VW camper crowd for adding a recreational battery Thanks Stever. I'm unclear on the difference. Would y...

Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

Thanks Feds and Irp. Would the Odyssey 34-PC1500T be large enough? Can/should an AGM batt like this be mounted inside without venting externally? Is it possible (advisable?) to wire a 12V charger to the auxiliary power terminal of the trailer wiring outlet on the van? If so, any advise on how to do ...

Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

Hi All... Sure could use some help. Just bought a 2000 L400 Spacegear Chamonix, 3L V6. Trying to figure out a simple way to run a fridge (thinking the ARB 63), occasional laptop, and a heated blanket (the wife sleeps insanely cold... I'm talkin frigid). I was hoping to get a deep cycle batt and some...

Anyone have experience with B-Pro Auto Calgary?

Hi All... Brand new here. Just put down a deposit on my first import: 2000 Delica L400 Spacegear Chamonix. Just stumbled upon your forum and thought I'd check for feedback on the importer. A little startled to find none. Wondering if anyone out there might set my mind at ease?
Thanks.
