hello

right know i have my main battery will all the amps connected to it, I added on the weekend another battery and connected in parallel with the main, I ordered a Automatic Isolator since im playing with the car off most of the time.

I have a doubt, Since all the amps are connected to the main,nothing on the aux battery, if I add the isolator and play with the engine off, will I be using the power form the aux or from the main!?

Should I rewire the amps to the aux battery!?

Also when playing with the car on, using the isolator, if I leave it the way it is now, Is the 2nd battery doing its job?

Im asking this questions bc I think that the way I have everything connected right now + adding the isolator wont do nothing since the isolator is for using the power of the aux battery when needed, and since nothing is connected to the aux battery directly only connected in parralel with the main im doing nothing this way!

Please help me out !

thanks in advance
