Second VSR
I am not happy with my windlass setup - the wire run is too long with the windlass too far from batteries so I am going to install a dedicated high CCA battery at the bow with the windlass.

At the moment I have a Voltage Sensing Relay so that the alternator charges the house batteries after the start battery is charged (reaches 13.3V).


What I want to do is also charge the windlass battery, as well as the house bank, from the alternator after the start battery is charged.

I could be way off course here but my idea is to use a second VSR as follows:
From start battery run through VSR 1 to windlass battery - When start battery is charged (reaches 13.3V) alternator charges windlass battery.
From windlass battery run through VSR 2 to house batteries - When windlass battery is charged, as well as the start battery, the alternator charges house batteries.



Or would I be better off running both VSRs from the start battery



Is any of this possible???
Is there an easier / more efficient method???
Is there such as thing as a double / dual VSR that will do the job???

TIA,
Larry
