Switch that Could be Used with BrakeBuddy Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Kit Item # BB54FR
Question:
I have purchased this from you and installed it in my 1994 Jeep Cherokee which is towed behind our 2003 Dodge Ram Diesel. I understand that I should unplug when not in use to prevent back feed. What can I install to allow it to remain plugged in at night. A diode or??? Thanks

Expert Reply:
If you wanted to be able to leave the # BB54FR attached to your tow vehicle without it possibly draining your tow vehicle's battery would be to add a switch like the part # D16740 on the red wire that runs to the charger so that you could cut off the connection when you didn't want it to. Aside from that you'd have to disconnect it every time.
