split charge relay

[wanderlust]

i have a 75A relay, does this mean that i can up the Ampage of the wiring?? currently it is an 8A wire running between the two batteries, i am guessing that i can change this wire to a higher Amp one.

Aye you can, current works on a demand basis if your bus and ice etc draw more or require more the you will see that cable glow and feel a nice warm radiance. In effect a fuse.

So first check what your likely to be drawing then see what you want from there. 8A aint a lot which cable are you talkig about.

i am on about the wire that runs from the normal battery to the relay and the wire that runs from the relay to the liesure battery. I am guessing that if i had a bigger Ampage wire then the battery would charge quicker?

It dont quite work like that.

Though the higher rated cable is a better option, the charge current is fairly low greater at the start of the charge cycle specially when youve ran the batts right down.
