![]() ![]() The other where you use manual battery selection with a 1,2,both,off switch One using a diode splitter which is appropriate where you fully separate engine and domestic electrics, making one battery a fully dedicated domestic battery and the other a starter battery. The instruction manual for the advanced regulator gives two suggested wiring diagrams. olewillĬlick to expand.No problem with engine power then! But don't forget to go back to 1 or off to isolate engine battery from domestic loads when engine is stopped. If you don't want VSR or diodes just use 3 way switch using combine for charging of the house battery from the engine alternator. Move all your domestic (house) service loads to a separate switch (on off) or circuit breaker switch connected directly to house batteries. ie off on and both for emergency starting from house batteries. Keep your 3 way switch as power switch for the engine power. This waste of power is probably not a concern but would irk me.Ī VSR will not have any volt drop or power wastage. Probably more under initial charge rate and that is for each diode so each battery system. 7 volt up to 1 volt that means that at 10 amp charge rate you will waste 10watts of heat in the diode. ![]() However consider that silicon diodes drop. ![]() Isolation diodes for charging of both battery systems would be fine considering that the Sterling alternator controller should be able to be set up battery sensed so voltage drop across the diode is not a concern. ![]()
