I installed two new batteries this weekend, the auxilliary was
installed for the first time.  To have the sink light powered by
the auxilliary battery as well as the dash I moved one heavy
wire from the main battery, pulling it out of the right-hand
batt. carrier and running up into a new hole in the left-hand
batt. carrier to the + on the aux. battery. Now I believe
starting and charging are the only circuits tied to the main
battery.

Quite slick. Anyone see a reason to not run this way?
