Yes, VW did when the built the Camper/Multivan model
with the removeable 12V/110V Dometic fridge. The relay
and wiring setup is similar to what is shown in the
Bentley manual for the GL Camper.


There are a variety of opinions and setups for adding
a second battery to your Westy. Most have been
discussed in this forum monthly. A search of the web
and the archives should get you started.
