Most of these "isolators" are actually two sets of diodes.  One feeds 
one battery and the other feeds the second.  The sense wire for the 
voltage regulator should then be taken to the battery side.  
Therefore both batteries see the same voltage drop and they will be 
charged equally.  It is not a particularly elegant solution since 
there is a constant voltage drop in the system, dissipating 
significant power - hence the large heat sink.  It works, though.
Gary,
 
Right - And before you get such a part, compare the Diode characteristics with that available from
 
 
Just as an intellectual exercise, of course.
