Here it is. Not the best of pickies, had to visit the Dr this morning and gave me some jabs and left my hands real bad. The layout is fairly obvious.
1. small switch on left joins both batteries a 12amp and a 7 amp together, to charge in parallel. (13.8v regulated plug pack)
2. Bank of RCA connectors gives 6 X 12v outlets
3. Large switch, Centre Off, switches between 12 or 7 amp battery (fuses behind panel = 10amp)
4. Cig lighter socket 12v output for EQ6 cable
5. Pos N Neg terminal sockets 12V out.
Second Picky The two batteries inside padded with foam The box is large enough to take 2 x 15am SLA batteries. The lid that goes over the batteries makes a nice compartment to get ones meter and cables. The white RCA with short link to a 2.1mm DC connector is the adapter to plug the charger pack into the RCA bank.
Incidently the box was originally one from Target and had a hair dryer and accesories, which now reside in a Red Dot plastic container.
To run the 600 watt inverter I use a 15amp Jump start pack. It has very heavy DC cables and croc clips On the Inverter and Jump start pack.
This setup lasted me all weekend at a Dryandra Astro campout with plenty to spare
As Roger said. His gear only uses a small amount of current and its same for my setup with the EQ6. It should be noted that when a manufacturer quotes "Amps" ie in the EQ6 specs, this does not mean it uses 2amps, but that is the capability of the power source supplied/required to run the unit "safely" with at least 100% tolerance.
In other words dont tow a 2 tonne trailer with a Suzuki Swift!
