 There are no 'timing' issues with using
 a second battery for brownout protection.
 Consider Z-35 for second battery and
 simply leaving the aux battery relay
 open until after the engine is running.

 What is the cost of accidently leaving the aux battery on during start?  Is it just a sag, or does starter-sized current try to run through the small relay and associated wiring?  If the main is weak, will the aux battery work that much harder?  I'm concerned that a relatively simple mistake like leaving the aux batt on during start will do some damage.
 
 (I've put switches in the wrong position before...)

 Make the aux battery switch two pole
 with second pole wired to disable
 the starter contactor any time the aux
 battery is ON.
