travis_slim, sorry about the mess in your thread. And yes the best way to run your accessories is off a converter or a separate 12 battery. When you use 1 12v battery in the pack, or 2 -- 6v batteries to get 12 volts. Your pulling those batteries down more than the other batteries. And when you charge your battery pack, the batteries that are not running the accessories are getting to a full charge before the ones that are running your accessories. While these batteries that are not hooked to the accessories are at full charge, and the accessories batteries are not. So while the accessories batteries are trying to get to a full charge, the other batteries are being over charged and shorting there life. Trojan battery tells you not to run your accessories off a couple batteries in your pack
