Wired in a switch on it's ground line. Drew 15milliamps when in non combining load. So even a constant draw in the battery with the selector switch off. Sounds like a horrible design Standard design. Some draw a little less, some more.. Has a voltage sensing relay to connect the two battery's together when charge voltage reached. Our have to put a battery on off switch in each battery line or a switch on the relay circuit ground line. These days I would expect a FET on that front end that was drawing micro amps in standby. I suppose a relay hooked to the ignition switch is an idea tho. Easy to toss a SPST in line of the ground wire. |
