I was wondering if there was something that allowed the vehicle alternator to charge it. LOL, I just couldn't find it. However, with a stock alternator, I wouldn't attempt to use this gadget, even though I know it would work. It won't say it, but I know for a fact that the extra load on the alternator will shorten it's life. And alternators aren't cheap for my truck. If I did that, I would have to upgrade my alternator to something much larger.
The thing I like about the 2 bank on-board charging system is all you do is plug it in and forget about it. That is so freaking awesome! half the reason I neglect my batteries now is because i'm lazy and it's a pain in the butt to get the charger on the batteries. I don't have a problem running a drop cord to the boat, that's easy. Like Gregg was saying, he just plugs his in and leaves it. They are always ready to go. That's what i'm talking about. [cool]
Maybe the IRS will be good to me this year and I can knock this project out pretty soon. [
