Hi Tankers

Found this 24v connecter sharing box. I have orderd one with on-off switchs to each output

My thoughts was to connect this box to the main powersource, the 24 battery, and on the box then connect like this
Armortek mail + & - to one outlet
CTEK 24v charger to second outlet
24v to 12v converter to third outlet

Idea is to have a possibility to completely disconnect the armortek electronics when having maintenence and transportation as well when charging

So I would need to switch on the outlet 1 with the armortek attached here to be able to power on the panzer

Again switch it of and for charging the batteries then switch on the 2. outlet

What do you think - is that doable

cheers
Steen

Sounds like the right thing to do. I do something similar with a power relay (DPDT) that is energized by the charger, routing the charging power to the batteries and cutting the electronics out. It's pretty fool proof. If the charger is attached, the batteries will be charged. There are no settings that can be forgotten in the wrong position.
