    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    I would like to be able to run my 12v ac, while winching someone out at night, with all my lights on that you can play a football game under, while cranking Metallica with a 2,000 watt stereo system, and be able to roll down all 4 windows down at the same time. That's the dream right there.

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    There would be no reason the 60a would charge one battery more than another in a straight 24v system unless there was some type of load imbalance going on with the batteries. The placement of the battery would have no effect on whether one battery receives more charge than another. What you are...

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    So, as long as the truck starts, it shouldn’t be in limp mode because the alternator will be providing current to the bank. I get what your saying though. The only disadvantage I could see would be if your 14v tap stopped working, the tcm might be SOL at that point vs the original setup would...

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    So one of the reasons I am going with such a big relay (or really an isolator switch) is because if I do go with a winch, they can easily pull 500a when they are really bogging down. I have a Warn Zeon 12 on my Jeep JKU and it has yet to let me down, so I’m fairly confident that it would handle...

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    deciding between 1 and 2. But one of the reasons I was using the term ‘bank’ instead of just saying 12v, even if I only go with one battery, was to avoid any confusion between 12v wiring that is wired off the 24v like the stock configuration uses, and the actual new 12v dedicated set up that I...

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    Oh, and as far as the batteries, I found a battery tray on Amazon that works perfect for 6 bucks. So I have 4 of them. They are for a Group 24 batteries, I am running 24M7 batteries by Deka that I bought from Lowes for $103 a piece. I pulled out the 24v system with the 6T batteries and the...

    Running 12v accessories in my m998? What’s the best way??

    Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I am in the process of converting my M1123 to a separate 12v system. I am going to keep the engine and main components on 24v, but instead of tapping the second battery, I am going to install a third battery in the passenger rear compartment and run 12v from...
