Hi 

        I look forward to info on  this.  I have a lot to learn about batteries and set ups.

I have a very good set up in my 85 from the time it was with Dennis.  I love the charging system.  I also  really like the extra fuse box recommended by a friend and still in service.

But, My 84 wiring is less confidence building and I think I need to figure it out and appropriately update.

I was given a very nice electric cooler with the 84 and I would like to have the ability to use it in both vans.  So figuring out capacity and charging is on the list.

So keep me posted on all your creations and decisions folks.
