Alternator: How many batteries can it take?
I have a diesel, so two batteries for truck, there are two 6-volt for the Truck Camper, and I want to put a deep cycle battery in the cargo trailer. The Camper does have 200 watt solar to charge it...

Don't make the wire too fat and too short and it will limit power to reduce load on the alternator.
If you build it for maybe 60 amps with #6 wire you should be fine.
So, a thin, long wire to battery is less demanding than a thick, short one?
Other guy, how are you monitoring the alt temps? do u have a gauge?
