Anyway, now I have the fixture and the second power supply ready to go but encountered another question. I had planned to wire the power supply to the circuit that supplies the range hood fan/light. That circuit is "hot" any time the battery is connected or the converter is on. That means the power supply is "hot" almost always. What kind of problems might this cause other than just a very small constant current draw? We boondock a bunch and need as much battery conservation as possible. I'm starting to think that two out of three ain't bad and that she could cook with a flashlight.
Since you are in there rebuilding the fixture anyway move the switch to the 12 volt side of the regulator.
