Re: Stus-List Battery Bank Configuration

2020-01-04 Thread Josh Muckley via CnC-List
You're boat is wired wrong or you are misinterpreting the indications.  You
are absolutely correct that the starter battery should be "spared".  Really
what "spared" means is that it should always and only be connected to the
engine starter.  The output of the alternator should be switched by an ACR
or echo charge to charge the start battery only after the house batts have
sufficient voltage.

In the link is a picture of a "better" way to wire a system like yours.  If
you wanted to install the system as depicted but split the bank of 2 house
batteries, you could re-purpose your old/existing 1-all-2 switch such that
it separates the 2 house batts shown as a single bank.

Stus-List Battery Bank Configuration

2020-01-04 Thread Peter Cowenhoven via CnC-List
This may be obvious to most of you but came as a surprise to me.  I've got a 3 
battery bank with 2 deep cycles and 1 starter battery.  It's got a 1 All 2  
switch.  I was testing load and was surprised to see that if you're using 1 or 
2 it's also drawing power off the starter battery too.
Doesn't this defeat the point. Shouldn't the starter battery be completely 
spared while not running the engine.
Is there a better configuration?
Thanks in advance!

With aging knees and hips it’s getting difficult for the Admiral and me to

 Mike,
I’ve always admired your 37’. Beautifully set up and maintained. Someday ours 
will (almost) be as nice.
Trading up or moving away from sailing? No matter, good luck with your 
endeavors.

Mike,

Ah yes. My wife sports a new bionic hip.

I was going over your blog posts and noted that you anchored out a few creeks 
away from our dock on your Spring return trip last May. Would have been fun to 
run over and see your boat and say Hello.

Stus-List Fwd: Stainless Anchors at Defender

John

I’ve been using a Delta Sureset 35 as my primary for well over 10 years now.  I 
can tell you it has held in 50 kt. winds.  My secondary is a Bruce 44 that 
hasn’t been out of the locker in years.

YMMV
