jimdog32526 Posted January 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 The only thing the switch does is determine which batter starts the truck. Skippy, That's another option as well. I could run the main power feeds directly off the side post or top post depending on the hardware I end up using. I already plan to run the security system power to one of them so it's on all the time. Either way the stereo always has power. The switch only locks out power to the starter. The security system locks out the starter trigger wire. I just thought it would be that much more difficult to steal the truck like that since they probably have never seen that before. I'm still debating the switch. I may ditch that idea yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 You can't switch from one to the other when wired this way.

jimdog32526 Posted January 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 hmmm. ok So no matter where you tap into it in the circuit, your always pulling from both batteries because of that connection? I see that now. Thats why I had the Isolator in there to begin with I suppose. ok, so I guess I will scrap the switch if it wont work without the isolator and replace it with a Distribution block.

jimdog32526 Posted January 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 ok revisions #3. This should be it. eliminated damn near all extraneous Connections, which should be a good thing. Made it a Simple Parallel Run. I included the starter relay in there this time. and the frame/engine grounds. I also Switched the Batteries to 2 XS Power D3400's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
