In my quest to become a tight a*se boater, i am looking at a cheap way to put the charge from my two engines into two battery banks.
I dont want to set it up as one bank per engine as i want both engines to be able to charge all the batteries, for example if one engine breaks down.
I have two 50 amp alternators. I also have one voltage sensortive relay that i kept from my old boat.
Question is, can i parallel the outputs of both the alternators so that either or both can charge via the one single relay? It is a 180 amp rated Amber Valley voltage sensortive relay.
Id appreciate any input or other ideas.
Thanks
