During discharge, the batteries are separated by the diodes. For example, when the service battery is discharged, the starter battery will remain fully charged. Thanks to the use of Schottky diodes, the voltage drop of the Argo load current distributors is very low: only 0.3 V at low current and 0.45 V at maximum current.

The new ARGO diode load current distributors have a separate current-limited ‘Energize’ connection with which voltage can be applied to the B+ connection when the motor's ignition switch is turned to the ON position.
