And just to hopefully make the Trik-L-Start's function a bit clearer, it only passes a charging current to the chassis battery when the coach batteries are at a higher voltage than the chassis battery. Once the batteries equalize, the Trik-L-Start goes into a standby mode until it's needed again.
I have ordered a Trik-L-Start and it appears that the installation will be quit simple.
My only concern is if there may be a downside to leaving it connected full time, i. e. traveling, camping, storing with power, etc. The coach is plugged always, except when when traveling. I have searched the Tiffin manuals and find nothing that addresses my situation. They just say to disconnect the batteries, with the disconnect switch, when sitting for an extended period.
