Hey Brian-
Can you send me a schematic of how you installed the West Marine isolator? I
have one also- and trying to make sure I get it in there correctly-
currently have separate relays for each battery installed, and I have a
cross over relay , but not sure if I will still need it or not......

Thanks Kurt/Brian,
Any comments AL.
I was looking at the ASE Sure-Power 70Amp unit for $40.
Guess I'll buy and try it.
