 IMO the Redarc SBi12 is what I would be using.

I currently run a BCDC 25 amp in my 200 series which is ample with a solar panel im running for remote trips, but if your not running remote just split the batteries with the SBi12.

You can also run a toggle switch off dash to run in parrallel for jump starting off 2nd batt if required.

Purchase online as they are cheaper.

 Never had an issue with redarc products in 15 years of using them.Currently using a couple of 50amp bcdc chargers and lith batteries.

 Do your homework timboon there is lots of options out there. For my money spend a bit more now and it will pay off in the long term.
