    Am I having a pipe dream?

    I might add about the daily driver, If they both fail to start or run I can still walk the 1 1/2 miles to work. No problem. My wife has her Jeep for groceries and such. I would think hard about an MV for a daily driver if I had a longer commute. Job comes first in that respect.:beer:

    wiring help

    As far as burning up your converter, the life or death of it is determined buy the quality of the unit. Buy cheap -- Get cheap. Buy top of line -- Get somewhere between cheap and top of line. Take the shot and give us updates. Don't take the shot and always wonder.2cents

    wiring help

    With what experiences I've had the converter CAN put out 10A but as the load decreases ie. battery becoming charged, the output lowers as the load decreases. I also agree with CBVET that a disconnect and meter are in order. without a monitoring circuit the converter would eventually boil the...

    Oil leak

    Mine did the same though not immediately. I changed the oil one evening, started and checked for leaks - none. Next morning I drove to work and saw a little oil puddle when I parked. I was 1 1/2 gallons short. The mile and half to my house had a nice black streak in the road.
