Electrics question (not Honda!)

<< < (2/2)

Bryanj:
Not a good idea to have two different types or ages of battery permanently connected together

ogri211:
I think you would be better with your first Idea, if you are using a motobatt these keep their charge very well even over the winter, you may have a problem connecting it in parallel as the voltage on the motobatt is slightly higher being a gell battery, but I think the biggest problem would be if there was a drain or short circuit on the original circuit and your backup battery was connected it would flatten that one as well defeating the purpose, another idea would be a small set of jump leads.

Don't do yourself down, surely the old CR is up to it Mark!
I love these technical questions,  you always learn something to store in the old memory banks.
