[QUOTE="Occasional_panner, post: 302783, member: 7956"] Thanks, Condor, currently the alternator isn't charging the second tray battery properly, but it's probably getting it to 80%. Would that 160w panel be able to make up the last 20% and look after the battery given my infrequent use of the second battery? If not then I'll have to get a dcdc. Edit, my reasoning for this, is I already have the panel, so that would save me buying a dcdc, but I'll do what's needed. 2nd edit, three different people have told me I need different models of the redarc 1225lv 1225ign and 1225d. That's another reason I was put off buying one, as I didn't want to spend $500+ on something that's not quite right. [/QUOTE]
