I'm running around like a pork chop getting ready to leave for the long weekend camping and realised I have an energy sucking family, Waeco, camper, lights, stereo, etc but no deep cycle...LMAO.

Raced around like a mad man today and just installed this for Australia Day...Another high-tech quality AB product...YEP...lol

Old school manual isolator!!!! Just waiting on Evil Twin, Yendor or Fletch to flame me on this one...lol

Also, I got my old man to make up a power outlet for the rear with 3 plugs, fuses and LED operating lights which may improve my high tech 21st century dual battery monitoring system....lol

Apologies for the fuzzy photos....Yet again!

you can get a dual battery kit from super cheap for about 60 bucks, disables the second battery from stealing power from the mains till the mains reaches 14v, simple but effective and cheap... just incase you didnt know these existed

All good Andy, I hope you have a very relaxing and pleasant weekend, the wiring looks ok for a quicky, at least you will find the yellow feed wire easier in the DARK!!
Thank you for all your work on my website, I am over the moon.
Have a good and very safe week end
Cheers, the ferret.

Ejector seat.....lol.....Nah, thats the cord for the Pyro gauge off the dump pipe. I love the TD42's for their simplicity and non electrics but now I'm beginning to make it a spaghetti factory....lol
