Hi guys,
I'm currently shopping around for Surfs at the moment, as I need one for some fieldwork I'll be undertaking in Spain over the summer. I'm hoping to be able to run a fair amount of electrics off it, laptop, GPS, work lights, possibly even a mini-fridge (!!), so obviously the Surf's capacity for two batteries already fitted is a big bonus. I've read the FAQ about two batteries and I was wondering how easy it would be to fit a charge splitter and all the associated stuff with having one main starter battery and a leisure one? I've got precious little experiece with car electrics although I reckon I could handle myself with a good set of instructions Would you guys recommend trying it myself? Or would I be better off getting a real mechanic to do it?
Cheers!
