Anyone else have two batteries?

My bus has two batteries and I was just wondering if I can use the battery that is not in the engine compartment to wire to my electrical system? I feel like that’s gonna be much easier than trying to go through the engine, and more accessible.

Dog nipped my neighbors hand

My dog has always been good with people and dogs at parks and city areas but when we moved into our new apartment he’s become aggressive towards our neighbors. He is always barked and pulled out the leash to get to them, but has never bit anyone. I’ve tried working with him to get him to walk next to me and we’ve been making some small improvements. Today we were on a walk, and I ran into a neighbor I had not met before downstairs. Rusty was doing good and he wasn’t barking initially and the man signaled us to go in front of him so we did and then Rusty barked a little bit. He started some conversation with me about Rusty and I said he usually doesn’t like neighbors, but after a while of sniffing, he’ll warm up. (He warmed up to my next door neighbors and loves them) so he asked if I let him sniff him, I said sure as I thought it would be good practice for him to chill out. But he started barking again and jumped at him, and then nipped his hand. I pulled him back and I asked did he bite you he said yes I said did he draw blood? He said a little bit. He hasn’t had this happen to him before and Rusty has never been anyone before so I didn’t really know what to do and he didn’t really know what to do. He said what should I do and I said you definitely should wash your hands, but it wasn’t bleeding enough to even need a bandaid. He then asked me if he had his rabies vaccine and I said yes he’s up-to-date on all of his vaccines. I asked him if he needed anything and he said no, and I just kept apologizing and we kind of both just walked away.

I’m scared he’s going to report him. He’s never done this before. I am meeting with a dog trainer next Wednesday, but I’m scared because it’s expensive, but I’d rather pay than lose my dog. Should I leave a note on his door of my contact information or should I just let it dissolve? I’m just scared. I don’t wanna make it worse by trying to make it better?

Insulation for fiberglass shell shuttle bus

Hello friends. I was wondering if anyone here has experience insulating a fiberglass shell shuttle bus, I don’t believe mine has any of the metal framing you see for other types of school bus Skoolies. So I can’t exactly rip off the walls without damaging the structural integrity. It’s the type of wall that has the honeycomb, corrugated, cardboard looking layer under the fiberglass. I live in DFW Texas area so insulation to keep humid hot air is important. I originally planned for spray foam but I don’t believe that will be an option anymore. Is Kilmat and duck liner enough? Need advice.

Charge Controller Question

I'm trying to understand how all the solar works. I did some math and estimated I would need around 1500 W of solar coming in for my 12V 600Ah Lithium battery. I understand 1500W/12V = 125 but obviously that's way high for a charge controller. How do I lower that?? The bus i'm buying comes with three 100 W panels and I'm planning on just adding three 400 W panels to that to add up to 1500 W. I saw something on a different reddit post about wiring in series vs parallel to increase the voltage, but I only have one 600Ah battery so I assume the panels? Please halp.
