Re: Dual alternators and dual batteries....

Which was what I was doing after I installed the higher voltage alternator and saw those voltages Viva. Myself I want things automatic, so I forked out the bucks & stuck in a lower voltage XP-270....

Re: Dual alternators and dual batteries....

Re: Dual alternators and dual batteries....

Sure looks cool and high tech. A while back I called them and they claimed they had not designed one for the high amp alternator I have but that was a couple of years ago. Also not sure how it would...
