wiring up a compressor

[tuckertrucker]

bumma, i was really thinking that might work

And I've lost faith in the idea of it being under the bonnet now, theres not really any room to mount it now ive had a good look. I might build a compartment in the rear for it and the aux battery, dunno yet.

There is a simple solution if you want to use an auxiliary battery (12v) to run the compressor. A redarc BCDC 1240 will accept 24v to charge a 12v battery. (It will also enable you to connect solar panel(s) to charge the aux battery without needing to buy a another solar regulator if you want to do that down the track).

Thanks for that cuppa, I always thought that you couldn't earth a 12v battery to a 24v earth. Obviously its doable haha, I might need to brush up on my electrical skills
