You can buy the toad charge for about $100 plus or you can run a charge line to your battery and use a high amp diode for about $6 that does the same thing as the toad charge. The only thing you do by using the diode is cheating Toad charge out of $94 profits.. JMHO. Got my diodes from Radio Shack plus small plastc box for diodes.
Interested in the diode idea. Is that something that needs to be soldered in place or is it a plug and play type application? Is there a part number for the diode or do I just ask for a high amp diode?
Just one hot wire back from the coach battery to the jeep with the diode somewhere prior to the jeep battery?
As stated, I am sort of electronically challenged when it come to 12v wiring but not scared to learn.
Thanks,
Phillip
