$100 for 1, $90 ea for two, or $80ea for 4.

had a close look at it the other day.

Its old tech, diode based isolator, so the limitation is that the aux battery won't get charged to its maximum potential,
especially while its delivering a load at the same time.
Other than that it looks nicely made. hmmm where can I get a heatsink that looks like that, maybe a lil bigger ?.......
Best get as heavy gauge wire as you can to minimize volt drop over the wire portion when hooking up. No I didn't buy one. :wink:
