It's an electronic diode contraption that keeps your AL. drives from being ate up when you plug into shorepower. Also a saftey devices. Not to mention when your dock neighbor uses an automotive battery charger to charge his batterys, instead of a marine charger. There IS a difference.

Very simple to install. Cut the green ground wire just after your shorepower plug and install the GI inline. Done. Safe. Happy Boating.

I am currently doing this exact install in my 32! I bought a 5000 btu window unit from Home Depot and a triplite 2250 watt inverter/charger along with 2 Odyssey batteries and 2 blue top Optimas. The custom audio shop I am using has done this many times and the owner has the exact same set up. They are installing shore power and the pannel for the hook up will be next to my right hip on the inside of the boat (along with the custom cup holder and audio wired Clarion remote they are installing. We are doing it like this because I will also be using a Honda eu2000i generator for those long days at the cove and the cord will just go around the windshield and into the panel. This way I don't have to cut anywhere in the hull.
The A/C unit is being mounted in the cabin on the storage closet wall. 6" of the evaporator will be inside the close and 3" will come out into the firewall by driver's feet but will barely be noticeable after they install the white screen around it. They are also making a custom drip pan that drains into the bilge for any condensation the unit makes inside or outside of the closet. I went up yesterday to check on it and they already have the holes cut for the sub boxes under the rear seat and also for the a/c unit. I will be back up there Fri and take some pics if anyone is interested in seeing them. Jay

I removed the cooler and located my AC there. In doing so, I actually gained storage space.

A buddy located his AC under his bed in his 42.

Where do you keep your drinks now? Bring a cooler on board I suppose?
