Similar to diode battery splitters, FET splitters allow for charging two or more batteries simultaneously from an alternator (or a single-output battery charger), without the need to connect the batteries to each other.
Unlike diode battery splitters, FET splitters have virtually no voltage drop.
Voltage drops are less than 0.02 Volts for low currents, and on average 0.1 Volt for higher currents.
When using ARGO FET splitters, it is not necessary to also raise the output voltage of the alternator. However, it is advisable to use short cables with a sufficient effective cross-section.
Example: If a current of 100 A flows through a cable with an effective cross-section of 50 mm2 (AWG 0) and 10 m long (30 ft), the voltage drop across the cable will be 0.26 Volt. Similarly, for a current of 50 A flowing through a cable with an effective cross-section of 10 mm2 (AWG 7) and 5 m (15 ft) long, the voltage drop will be 0.35 Volt!
