In a motorhome, would this pull from the house battery or the motor battery when the motorhome is plugged into electricity?

In most newer motor homes this would pull from the house battery(s). But, some motorhomes with the cigarette plug in the dash will pull from the motor/chassis battery. However, when your motorhome is plugged in, it usually charges both. Kinda depends on your motor home.

I put it on my gooseneck trailer hooked it up to a battery tender to keep my battery charged at all times works good for that. I don't think I would do the house thing.

Your batteries are hooked up in series so you end up with 12 volts (one batteries positive to the others negative. Think of two flashlight batteries end-to-end. Connect the panels in parallel with the circuit. Your motor home runs off the batteries and the panels keep the batteries charged.

Yes, the power source, being the power coming into your home, must be wired to the emergency light for two reasons. One, to keep the battery charged in the emergency light and two, incase of a power outage the emergency light will come automatically.

You wire it directly into your house wiring so it is constantly charged by the house electricity. When the electricity fails it senses the loss of power and the emergency lights activate. Once the power comes back on the emergency lights go off and it begins recharging the battery for the next time the power fails. Hope this helps.

Yes, I connected two batteries in my motorhome. I first disconnected one ground cable, then connected one lead to that post and the other to the positive post on the other battery. Within minutes, I got the flashing green light indicating full charge and in float status.

Two ways to charge either lift the battery out and charge or charge directly on the mower

It only charges off the alternator when the motor is running. I use a couple of battery tenders when parked on the trailer or a solar charger when I leave the boat in the slip.

It uses a pull cord for on/off and speed control. In my opinion it is too strong for an in home application if you want to use it in a garage or warehouse type setting it would be ok.

I had my Son in Law to hook ours up, and as I understand it, it switches back and forth charging which ever battery has the lowest power. We are also using a straight deep cycle battery for house battery and a Rv starting/Deep Cycle on motor side. These things are the cats meow when you are on the water and drain your starting battery down. Lines Taut, GUY

This power standby battery will kick - in when there's a lost of power. The normal battery hook - uo is, that that it is plugged to the power plug. When the battery is exhausted then the alarm goes on and you have to shift battery to house power.

You can remove from your vehicle. And it will need to be plugged in to outlet to function

I've started mine both ways. The manual pull is pretty easy. I like having the electric start as backup.

I use it both ways. Sometimes battery gets low half way thru a cut, do I just plug then in and continue on

Not really. The light is an LED, so will pull very little off your battery.

Yes. It will only keep you from disconnecting if it detects the engine running, which you want because a running engine without battery could overvoltage and cause problems.

Depends on if the 12 volt outlet is constant or switched. If it is always on when the car is off and you will be away from the car for more than a few hours it should be unplugged as it has a minor current draw.
