Right. What we are calling a "solenoid" is really a big relay.
RC Pilot Jim said:So the "Separator" adds a monitoring feature to the old "solenoid" that increases and decreases voltage to the battery based on how full it is.
No only on or off based on the voltage of the truck battery. You can get a model that will work both ways if you need to jump start the truck.
Other than occasionally hooking up a Whatt meter to monitor the fridge amp draw, I never considered adding a gauge to do this full time. Would someone explain the benefits of having one?
Just more information, a volt meter will tell you where the battery is. It will not let you know the draw or use and what has happened.
And should I add a fuse block fo the fan, lights, and 12 volt plugs since factory didn't see the need to do so?
Thanks.
?? You do not have a fuse on the fan, lights and 12 volt plugs?? Add as soon as you can, you do not want to find out what is flammable in you camper.
