Charging multiple batteries while running

[DocBob]

Is there a harness available or a wiring trick used to hook up the two deep cycle batteries fom my 24 volt trolling system, to my starting batttery so they can recharge while I'm running?

Morning Doc,<br />Sure is. Go to your marine parts dealer & check out the range of Perko battery control switches. These are made in the US but are used everywhere<br />(even Down Under) because they are big on quality but small on price. The enclosed instructions for wiring up batteries are complete & easy to understand. No need to spend big bucks on a marine electrician for this job. <br />Regards,<br />Peter.<br />PS. Accept no cheap & nasty clones <br />Whoops. I am basing this advice on the fact that your 24V power is coming from 2x12v batteries in series & that your starting battery is also 12v.

just as long as you have a decent charging system, unless you are running miles and miles between fishin holes, you wont have much time to get juice into those batteries
