Added an auxiliary leisure change the battery setting?
Hello Learned forum users!
I've added a leisure battery through a split charge relay, for lights, usb charging etc etc when camping....not quite finished the install yet but its hooked up and works.
The output from the alternator seems to hunt a bit more than it did when it was just charging the main cranking battery ( I'm sure it will settle down once both batteries reach capacity, so am not too worried at present)
The main question is.....Should I alter the battery settings with the IId tool to take into account the additional 60Ah leisure battery?
Opinions welcome
A few pics of the install.....
