I am about to connect a second battery in my caravan. The original battery has been tested and has come up within 5% of a new battery in performance and the new battery is identical (except brand) to the old one so i believe that the exercise is worthwhile. Having searched the threads i cannot find the advice need. Do i need to put an inline fuse between the batteries? I have been told from "yes, essential" to "no, for what purpose". Now i am confused!!! If i put in a fuse and it blows the cable would still be live as it is still connected to the other battery. What's your opinion fellow travellers?
