Don't have fancy drawing programs, just messing around with painter, might help someone who's interested, there are different ways to put together a schematic this is just a simple one liner. Black line is negative, Red line is positive. I would suggest using small fuses for your switches, say...

Awesome Idea thanks for sharing

The one's I have for the alarm at full charge usually run 12vdc to 12.6vdc, on my voltmeter.

I like doing this kinda stuff, 30 yrs in the electrical industry I guess. I really don't see where it would hurt to plug an Ac/Dc charger in place of the alternator input, it's load side would be DC just like the alternator, just my unauthorized opinion, today's alternators out put is 13 -...
