Subject: | Re: Auxiliary Battery |
Thanks for the replys/inputs. Because this is still in the planning stage and taking
on board the comments I may now reconsider my previous comment that a VSR
could be the simplest solution for charging the Auxiliary Battery. ..... Ill
be using the LightSpeed recommendation circuit for powering (and charging) one
ignition from the Auxiliary Battery. Instead of the Schottky Diode or a VCR
in that circuit, the good old tried and proven Master Type Solenoid could be
used. The activation switch, powered from the Auxiliary Battery could be located
near the ignition switches. Cant envisage any disadvantages, but advantages
over the Schottky, VCR and DcDc Charger. would be. Readily available, robust,
reliable and economical components. No standby power consumption (around 10mA)
with most VSRs. With the correct gauge connections the Auxiliary Battery could
be used with the Main Battery for starting if needed. .... Easily connect
or disconnect both batterys to maintain two seperate power storage sources for
Electronic Ignitions. ...... Comments invited. Cheers from Western Australia
