Thanks, again, Guys
I'll pursue your links offereed, and suggestions when the busyness of this Christmas Season is behind us. For now, I have a portable "Smart Charger" (2Amp with Float function) hooked directly to the Chassis Battery.
Pfflyer: You asked If your charger has just a + and - leads how will it charge the starter battery connecting to the + of both batteries?
From what I read/understand the Trik-L-Start's 3 leads are hooked ---- one to the Chassis Post on the Isolator, a second to the Coach post of the Isolator, and the 3rd to ground. Theory being that up to 5amps are "stolen" from Coach and transferred to Chassis. When "full" the Trik-L-Start goes into "Float" mode. All the while, the Coach battery is "kept full" by ShorePower/Converter.
The question that remains in my mind ------ If it's that simple, Why didn't Jayco provide that feature directly from the Factory? I'll try to verify that later.
In the meantime -------- thanks again, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all.
