For land or water campers the hardest part to get up to speed on is living on batteries. There is some usefull info on the web ,and a few old good books , but I would like to recomend the TOME on DC and batts. Nigel Calder's "Boatowners Mechanical & Electrical Manual"3rd edition, is by far the best presentation on the requirements of a usefull setup. While not all can appreciate 100 pages on batts , a quick read will at least let you know the basic requirements , and why your batts fail at 2 rather than 10 years. Wish this book was avilable 40 years ago when I started building offshore boats! At your local library , FAST FRED |
