I have a a question or two for the battery experts:
My set-up is 2 house and 1 start with a Blue-Sea ACR switch which has a start/1
or all switch. I also have a Victron(?) battery monitor that lets me know whats
up.
Mostly I am at the dock so I have access to AC power but prefer not to leave it
'on' in my absence.
I would like to hook up a solar panel to trickle charge the system in my
absence and would like advice on physically how to do it. I have a MPPT
controller, etc. but need a simple/safe way to connect/disconnect it and where
should I connect: directly to one of the battery banks?
Similarly I like the idea of an emergency battery/charger (the portable kind
that keeps its internal battery charged from AC but is light enough to carry on
board) that can be hooked up to get going if all the above goes to hell,
Where is the best place to patch such a connection to the system for an
emergency start system--presumably this same place could be used also hook in
the solar panel?
Thanks,
Charlie NelsonWater Phantom
