The next big thing was power! What sort of system do I need,
I want something to charge my 12 leisure battery but would not over charge the
system (like a standard split charge rely would) The best option was going to
be Sterling 50a 12v-24v Batt-Batt Charger the reason:
The
best way to charge a battery is by using a 4-step battery charging curve which
cannot be achieved from a standard alternator. This charger unit is simply
attached to a standard engine starter battery. It then fools the alternator
into working at its maximum ability in order to ensure that all its surplus
power is utilised to charger the auxiliary battery bank. The system is designed
to use only the surplus power and, at all times, ensures that the power
required to run the primary system (the vehicle’s or boat’s engine system) is
not affected. The surplus power is converted into a higher voltage and used to
charge the secondary battery bank using a digitally controlled, programmable
4-step charging curve.
In a
nutshell it charges your domestic battery system about 5 times faster than it
would otherwise be charged and helps to ensure that the batteries are working
to their maximum ability, enabling them to produce their full potential power.
It also increases the life of the batteries by helping to de-sulphate them.
