I started this thread over in Discussions to get some help on how to proceed thanks to SeaBob I have started. I have ordered all the wiring and supplies from GenuineDealz they have great prices and free shipping. I am adding a group 27 deep cycle battery with a seperate charger and a BEP switch with an isolator nice compact setup. Went down to the boat yesterday for a couple of hours. So far I installed the charger the switch and a new rigging tube . Here are some pictures I hope.
This is what I started wit

Going back tomorrow to pull some wires.I am thinking of using 2 group 24 deepcycle batteries in parallel instead of 1 group 27 that will give me more reserve amp hours. To do this I think I will have to get a bigger charger oh well I could put the one I just bought on EBAY I guess.

Or sell it on here!

I dont get it :scratch:

It could work with my setup, list it in the classifieds on here first!

OK if I decide to sell it I will do that thanks.

DT,
Believe it or not, that little Guest will charge a couple of Group 27s wired in parallell, but it will take a looonnnggg time...
You can always buy a second single bank and wire the A/C side into the same breaker as the first, so that when you turn on the "Batt Chgr" breaker on your panel, they both come on. Or you could go with the real deal...

and sell Lewis your Guest! :lol:
BTW, you would just need the ProSport 20, not the 20+.

OK fixed the mess I made.I went back down monday for a couple of hours and did some more work I got side tracked with a few things but managed to pull the wires from the stern to the
mid compartment that will hold the new battery bank.
