P1000 Aftermarket Battery

Like a "boost" switch in a motorhome?

Does anyone know what the True isolator does if you remove the small ground wire? Does it become a (closed) connection? Or does it (open) the connection between the 2 batteries?

Ceases to function. It needs the ground to read battery voltages.

Regarding your comment about the boost switch earlier. I believe newer model True Isolators have a tab you can connect a switch too. It will bypass the iso and allow both batteries to boost during cranking.

Not sure the manuals for the True Iso are not updated and last I checked weren't on their webpage. Even the one that comes with the newer one is crap. ISO itself works great but they could spend a few seconds printing an updated manual and placing it in the box....

Next thank you, because keeping it clean and wired tight was impotent to me.

OTJ...

Looks like you use a single bank (battery) charger connected to the original battery to charge your system. One of the benefits of this charger is supposed to be battery conditioning... I wonder if you still get that benefit when charging two batteries through your isolator? I guess the isolator switches between batteries as it charges to the cut in/out voltage.

I may go with a two bank charger, one charger output for each battery... I have to do a little more investigation.

I did get that nice port plug you show on yours... very functional and looks great besides... Thanks!
