Unless the cigarette lighter only works with the ignition on, it would be
the most useful place to plug in a trickle charger.  I've thought of this
for a while but haven't yet got round to making one to link up.  On my
camper I have the lighter connected via a changeover switch so I can put it
on the main battery (for when I haven't got a second one) or on the second
one.  It would be a useful way to charge either batteries while the camper
isn't being used, just by switching to the one or the other.
Simple low tech!
