DPDT 120vac latching relays are the hot setup for alternative charging sources. "Boing" go the lights. Click goes the relay. Your big mamma be off line until you reset the relay. The red headed stepchild takes over until the latching relay button is pressed again.
I tried that top rated battery floater. Two weeks of hilarity then a pitch into the useless drawer. Connected the Cheapowatt and set it to 13.20 volts.
As long as the beater does not try to make the barge hit eighteen knots going up the Nile, the Cheapo does fine. I.E. Make a wake - attend a wake (The Cheapo's). 350 watts is 350 watts.
