Newbie trying to set up Megawatt for charging
Trying to figure out what all I need to set up a Megawatt for charging 2 120 amp AGM batteries. I was looking at the s-400 Megawatt,cuting one end off some cheap 4 gauge jumper cables from amazon....

What else do I need to start charging? Digital volt meter hooked up to Megawatt?
I'd avoid cheap cables, they're going to be fine as dolls hair copper clad aluminum cable, near impossible to put new ends on. Have a local welding shop or alternator shop make up some 4ga cables for you, really shouldn't cost that much.
The megawatt website appears to recommend a digital volt meter and a clamp amp meter. Mexicowanderer recommends use of a mechanical timer to cut off power after X hours.
