[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3568507, member: 40864"] BTW, the answer to your original question is YES, if everything shares a common ground. This diagram assumes you want the charger connected to the battery in use. The opposite is doable, but will require a DPDT switch or relay (double pole, double throw). The switch or relay should be rated at or above the max amperage draw you expect.
