An identity on Energetic Forum as it was harvested, not an account on this site. Nobody here has claimed it, and nothing connects it to a person by name.
Update...
Relays ordered, Code is working on the pic.

Wonderful news...
I was able to track down they guy with the code, and he is gracious enough to share with us. I am now working on testing the code after I burn to flash
WOOOOO HHOOOOO

RE: Switch charger..
Looks cool, but would be hard to switch sets from primary to charging battery, although, if you wanted to say push a charge of only 12 V, till the first battery died then have a second one kick in this might work.
So far I have the Pic, and I have the Basic Stamp 2 program, however, I cant get my silly com port to talk to the board.
I have 2 boards now, the second board they shipped me the wrong power supply so, will have to wait on that one. I have emailed the company to try to find out why board number 1 does not work.
The joys of getting parts to work

RE: this board
Ok I have this board. I ordered it, and it is in my hands now... where in the world do I get a basic stamp 2 software to program it? Off to the net I go...

Serial Relay Output / Opto Input ( Basic Stamp, PICAXE) - eBay (item 360012731950 end time Mar-10-08 10:20:42 PDT)
It is like a high level language (Basic ) with relays built in.....
I am thinking like... this would be much easier than doing the assembly language routine for something as simple as we are doing..

Ok this might be a way to go...

OK!!!!! enough already.
Ok, next on my agenda is to build an automatic battery swapper.
I have completed the SSG, the SSG with a generator, and the RV prime mover, next is this battery swapper. I want to walk away from the SSG and let it mind itself.
I think I will attempt this in 2 directions. Number 1
( the link I posted before )
See Battery Swapper schematic .
I will order these parts and start in.
Also at the same time I will build the relay that Rick suggests for a standard double throw switch.
I do know I will need help... think I will post this in the bedini group, I am sure they want it as bad as I do.
I will have to learn the pic language, but all in due time.

RE: Circuit to auto switch.
We have the same dream
It has been done here ->

See Battery Swapper schematic .

I have looked around there is another circuit to shut off the power after the voltage on the primary reaches X amount.
I think you need to be part of this group before you can see the files.
