split charge relay question

Post by samk »

sorry for being a bore. I have been a good boy and searched the forun and wiki but i'm still a little confused. I'm looking for an intelligent system and have come across this one from Raw Components. The company seems to have been recommended before. Does the one below look ok?

That's OK - you could possibly save a few squids by sourcing the individual components yourself but if you haven't the inclination/time it's fine. Just make sure that you buy long enough cable - it's easier to not have to try to add a piece on.
