B2b ?

I now have the folder solar panel charging the leisure battery and doing a good job.
However, the starter battery is now low.
Short of driving about a bit (diesel cost) can the solar panel easier be made to charge up the starter battery ?

Easier to get a battery master from Eddie at VanBitz easy to fit

Fit a Battery Master to solve your problem...lots of info here on Fun for these...

Either a Battery Master, or a CBE Battery Manager.

Both are easy peasy to fit.

Cheers,

Jock.

What solar charger do you have, it could be a very simple job to get it to put a trickle charge to the cab battery ?

Thanks for the replies folks.
I can see I was looking for the wrong piece of kit.
I was looking under B2B but should have been searching for Battery Master.
In answer to Figaro , I could just take the big clips that came with the panel and connect them to the starter battery, which I think is under the floor in front of the passenger seat, but was hoping for a more permanent fix, I.e just put the solar panel outside/on the dash and plug in to topup both batteries.

 

[Figaro]

Ah, so is it a temporary moveable solar panel that sits on the dash ?
Apologies, I misinterpreted what kit you had.
Some solar controllers have an simple output to cab battery, I think they're usually described as 'Duo' controllers, that's why I asked.

Ok, but thanks for help anyway.
