Question:
question about brake away kits for BrakeRite EHB BrakeRite EHB requires 10 amp breakaway. Appears no one sells a 10 amp kit with one batteryis that true? From what I have been reading I need to wiring two kits in parallel. My question is about the charger for these two batteries. Can I purchase one kit with a charger and then wire the second battery in parallel and it will be charged from the charger on the first battery breakaway kit?

Expert Reply:
You are correct about how the batteries in the Gel Cell Breakaway Kit for Titan BrakeRite Systems, # T4822100, will be charged. Two batteries are required to meet the amp hour requirement and provide the 15 minute breakaway required by the Department of Transportation). The batteries must be wired in parallel according to the BrakeRite EHB, # T4822500, instructions (link provided for reference). A charger will charge both batteries, though because they are wired in parallel, it will take longer than a normal charge.
