Sorted my split charging this weekend

<< < (2/3) > >>

cstokes:
I have a simular set up on the series. I run a red top optima for the engine and a yellow top for the winch, lights and accessories. I use a powerline split charger and it charges both batteries like a dream.

If your never going to really push it I think thats a far better way of running it.  At least if you do flatten the battery the car will still start and if its a play day or green lane, waiting 20 mins for it to charge is hardly a chore :wink:

Id stick with the split if you not going to compete.

hobbit:
If you are using heavy load on the winch, run two batteries for the winch, and mount a third elsewhere to power the vehicle on longer leads

oakeedokee:
..and then fit uprated springs to carry all that extra weight...  :lol:  :lol:

davidlandy:
more battery power than a milk float!

 :shock:  :wink:
