As for an alternator not being used to recharge a battery, what about on a boat? I've seen a lot of dual battery systems where the auxillary battery is recharged by the alternator. (I know, wrong forum.

Whta are you going to be powering with the second battery?
Also, in a boat application, there is usually a battery charger incorporated into the boat's electrical system which charges the battery up when you are hooked to 120v AC when you are docked at a powered parking spot.
We never idled the boat to charge ours up. 460 big block doesn't make for an economical battery charger if you catch my drift.
Our boat was a 30 foot Bayliner Avanti and it has one of those HUGE deep cycle batteries.
