[QUOTE="Anolphart, post: 506734, member: 11434"] It's all a matter of supply and demand. Once you get a supply, the demand usually goes up and often then the supply becomes inadequate. If all you want is what you mentioned, I would be inclined to fit a deep cycle AGM battery in your car hooked up to your start battery via a voltage sensitive relay (and be generous with the sizing of your wires - I use 8 gauge) and then just use 12 volt charging leads for your appliances. If you find that you're not keeping up the charge by driving enough, then you can add a portable solar panel (with a built in regulator) to top it up. [/QUOTE]
