I'm assuming make before break battery switch. When I was "green" I messed with the switch, turning it to "off" (momentarily) and engine kept running. Had no ill effects from it, that I can tell.

Nice thread.

I run the inverter off one battery. When it's time to charge, should I switch to charge both batteries? Will the alternator see this as a higher average voltage and work less hard?

So far it's fine. With engine off I can run the inverter fully loaded for quite awhile. If the inverter warns me, I run the engine for awhile and all is well.

But, like I said, I'm just a day...

I don't feel like thinking right now, so, is my Delco Remy 10Si (po install) up to snuff?
