About the Argodiode 160-2AC 2 batteries 160A

The Victron Argodiode 160-2AC allows simultaneous charging of two batteries from a single alternator without interconnecting them. Discharging an accessory battery will not affect the starter battery. Schottky diodes provide a low voltage drop of approximately 0.3V at low current and 0.45V at rated output. A compensation diode can be used to slightly increase alternator output voltage to offset the diode drop. The alternator energize input (AC version) provides a current-limited feed to the B+ terminal, ensuring the alternator can start charging even with the isolator in circuit. Rated for both 12V and 24V systems with M8 stud connections.
