Infrequent Use with Varying Loads
If the load requirement is not heavy (intermittent
hand tool use or light loads for a long period of
time) the vehicle battery and charging system
should handle both vehicle and additional
generator demand.

Frequent Use with Varying Loads
If the load requirements are heavy (constant use
of hand tools or large loads) install one or more
auxiliary deep cycle batteries. The auxiliary
battery should be isolated from the vehicle
battery using a battery isolator. The battery
isolator is a one way path so both batteries are
charged by the vehicle but one battery cannot
discharge the other. This will ensure the vehicle
battery is always charged and you will be able to
start your vehicle.
