I have read everything I can get my hands on for this topic and I am still confused.
As it says in the title I have an M1031. The generator works so power is not a problem but I would really like to hook up an inverter so I can run my blender for margaritas and what not without having to run the truck. (I already have a 2000 watt inverter in hand)
I have a diagram of the charging system in it shows "Generator 1 (left) front battery charging" and "Generator 2 (right) both batteries charging". Based on that can I hook the inverter up to the front battery only?
Another idea I had was to hook up to both batteries in parallel (12v) and disconnect it with a couple of relays when not in use.
Any other thoughts? I have not seen this spcifically addressed for this set up.
This project is not important enough to justify spending much money on it but it seems like it should not be too hard to get working.
thanks for any info.
