Can you suggest a way to use it (or a different device) to also charge from shore power? Right now, I have a ProSport 8 and the GoWesty aux battery kit. So I have smart charging only on shore power. I'm thinking of adding solar and a DC-to-DC charger so my deep cycle lead acid house battery might have a longer life. But I'd sure like to do it with as few devices as possible. |
