[QUOTE="DINOZR, post: 1568243, member: 41843"] It sounds like a "simple" isolator with the battery wired in parallel may work. I'm designing the system and found the Raptor's alternator is rated for a max of 270 amps (200 amps at idle)! This is far above the ratings for common products used for these dual battery systems like Blue Sea ACRs (smart isolator and charging relay). Do I really need to step up to Blue Sea's 500A continuous/ 700A intermittent model, or will the 120A continuous / 210A intermittent model do? [/QUOTE]
