Default Can you change the battery switch while the engine is running?

Typically, you pick one batt
to start and one batt to cruise.


Not really a good idea. Best practice is to charge both batteries at
every opportunity, and then switch to a single house batt when
stopped. Some people like to alternate between 1 and 2 as the house
batt on different days to equalize the wear and tear.


According to who? You? Sorry, but that's a good way to drain both batteries
and then you'll have nothing. I think I'll stick to what I know.
