Long day - rescued a feral/ very weak kitten on the interstate today and lost a few hours dealing with that
but wanted to update real quick

Before i left home put both of them on the 15 amp for 2-3 hours each and according to that little digital readout on the 3amp charger that brought them both up to about 95%

J smith thanks so much for that easy/clear write up on how to connect them

Did it exactly as you said and it seems great

Will run the generator for a few hours tomorrow
And get the solar panel hooked up

Guess for right now i will pull that heat strip connection wire off the back panel of the frig and tape all that up with electrical tape
May get one of the guys at home to wire a switch in once the trailer is back down south

With 100 watts of solar and running the genny a little more than i have been am really hoping the batteries dont get down far much at all

Boondocking for a couple of days and then at an rv park with shore power for a couple

Will use my voltmeter and check the batteries some to see how they are doing, will keep this up to date

Thanks for all the help everyone
