Just wanting to clarify something with those in the know.
I have a dual battery setup (start & house) running through a regular BEP 1 / 2 / emergencey / vsr cluster. Every now and again i'll pull the batteries out and give them tickle up on the charger. Never done it but from looking at the way its cabled my understanding is i should just be able to plug my trickle charger direct into one of my cig sockets, turn both battery switches on and trickle charge away right?? Both batteries charge untill start is fully charged, vsr turns off start battery and then fills house.
Am i thinking straight?? Do i need to turn the emergencey 1 and 2 on as well?
As an alternative could i connect the charger direct onto the house battery and get the same result?
Cheer's, Scott
