Subject:12v upgrades product source
From:Brent Christensen
Date:Wed, 26 May 1999 09:50:41 -0700

For those of you grappling with upgrading your electrical systems, there is
a company that is somewhat famous in the off-road world for their heavy duty
components.  Their specialty is high amp charging systems.  Their web
address is http://www.wranglernw.com/

They also sell a book for $19.95 that is all about 12 volt systems.  I just
ordered it, so I will report back on my impressions.

BTW - I am still grappling with the "two-U1-batteries-in-parallel" question
(it was suggested by a respected list member that it would be unwise due to
possible voltage differential-induced surges of high current).  According to
the folks at Wrangler, it is no problem.  (Well, now I have a second
opinion...)

I will be hooking everything up this week in time for the weekend and will
report back on the results after the weekend.  I have yet to decide what to
do about the parallel hook-up question...
