All great input. I have been talking to Scotty a while and have one of his voltage reducers planned, however if I have enough room, I was planning to add a separate 12v deep cycle battery specifically for accessories, and then a fuse panel, like I have for "house batteries" on my boat. That way I can add a single charger for that battery to be plugged in when I plug the 48v charger in. I was also planning to add a small solar trickle charger just for that battery, with all the over-charge protection aspects too heh.

I hate dead batteries :P

So, this would let me get a 3-4 switch panel made (1 extra switch just in case heh)... and I like the idea of an off/on/on switch. I just got one of the oem off/on switches, but do not mind swapping that out heh....good idea.

Thanks guys!
