    NOW all that works it 12v lights if we charge the battey at home!!
    Oh ok then, so all the 240 did was charge the battery? There are a few ways around it, at work i would rewire the 12v side completly from lights to Anderson plugs.. With the 240v, you could just mount a 240v Charger and plug an Extension lead in from your powered site.. I have done this several times for customers and makes the system very simple.. This also keeps the 240 and 12v system seperate so if the 240 fails the 12v will still work through the anderson Plug and off the battery.. We install the Ctek chargers normally as have never had a problem with them and they will charge any type of battery
