Rich, is the relay via a the regulator to the start battery only in the case you have different type or size of battery or is there any advantage to add it with two lead-acid size 31, or any same size/type ? My alternator is wired to both 31 as my Guest chargepro 10 amp. Don't know if it adust output for each batt depending on state of charge.
I always start on 1 and then use 2 for instruments/house. Charging the two together without regulator, Am i toasting one battery here ? I do have an isolator combiner. I'm on a slip so shore power is available. no solar.... Thanks.
