What things do I need to consider in regards to Aux Battery Type? I'll be running an AGM Aux & I believe the AGM's don't like heavy current draws due to the possibility of damaging them - Is this correct or am I well off the mark??

Hi Rob, again, it depends on the brand of AGM. What brand is yours?

It's not a well-known brand, but it was in my budget, here's a photo of something like I got:

Charging is by 120 A alternator and 100w solar panel. Works great with no problems

I have had one of those for about 4.5years.
Recently had it tested for CCA and came out at 420 which is replace .
I think they started at about 850-1000CCA.
I will probably buy another one.
