[QUOTE="ProspectorPete, post: 320025, member: 3820"] I'll do my best to trace it tomorrow then. Realising now when thinking about it that if I charge my aux battery to 14.4v with the solar panel then start the vehicle an hour or so later and the aux battery is still over 13.8v the crank battery isn't going to like it. I'll report back when I find out the charge controller type but the aux Amp-Tech D70Z deep cycle is a lead acid batter that will take 14.4v max charge, thinking it may be best to just fit the switch to the solar panel and give it the 13.8v and save any issues to the crank battery.
