Subject:      Can I trickle charge an Optima and a regular battery together
              using jumper cables?

Subject line pretty much says it all. I am putting my syncro
up for the winter and I already have a trickle charger on my
Optima for camping that is hooked right to the shore power
cable.


Can I run a set of jumper cables between both bateries and
have the trickle charger keep both topped up? Or should I put
a seperate charger on each?


My batteries are curently set up with the silver relay system

Thanks,
Chris
