Its about two years old. The only charger I have is an Arlec 8amp charger with boost mode on it...

Could I use 6mm solar cable for the ctek? Thats all I have on me...

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
Ok I have the ctek mounted right next the aux battery. I need to run a cable from the starter across to the ctek, then the ctek to the aux battery and the earth of course. I will worry about the solar connection later...
If its not sufficient I will get some larger gauge cable later.
No worries... 6mm will be oodles for that

Sweet! Gir it mounted nice and close.
... should add that the Ctek will start to reduce power output at temps over 50 deg so under the bonnet isn't exactly ideal but life is a compromise and they need to go where they need to go

Awesome... now, take 10 minutes to neaten up your battery connections as well, slacko

are the temps monitored by that lead? I though of running it toward the front next to the headlight... That should keep the sensor at a cooler temp. I have in mind to make up a heat shield for the battery and ctek. Maybe even one of those beanies for the turbo like TD used.
Yep thats the next part. New battery tomorrow, I just need to move the vacuum canister and re-route the hoses to it, then shift the catch can, then I can make up a mounting plate for the 4way relay housing and 16way fuse housing. Its getting quite bad under the bonnet. I wish I had a daily driver so I could just park this thing, and rip the entire loom out and make a new one. You should see the other side behind the headlight! Running Projectors with HIDs, angle eyes and devils eyes, plus all the other shite, its really bad.Awesome... now, take 10 minutes to neaten up your battery connections as well, slacko
Well its all in and connected. I started the car up, lights came up on the ctek, the power light, the alternator light and the service battery light. I checked the charge voltage and the crank battery is getting a charge but the aux isn't. new battery there so maybe its charged enough sitting at 13.5V.... I can't see anything in the three whole pages about voltage cut-off etc etc..
