IM NOT SURE BUT IF YOU TAKE THE CAPS LOCK OFF,and use some normal text it might make it more easy to read at least,as i was getting a head ache looking at that,also you might find the answer a lot faster if you post this in I.C.E..

this is the set up im using, when playing with the car turned off it only uses the battery in the boot so you can still start your car, but when the cars going it charges both batterys

your not gonna be able to run any ice off that setup for any length of time as the alternator is gonna be unable to dump enough power to the second battery to keep it charged???

needs a proper split charge system that automatically changes the charge between the two
