Thread: Dual battery under passenger seat?

Most nearly all of us have dual batteries under the passenger seat.

There are quite a few threads and pictorials if you do a search

Here's one thread to start you off. Squeezing two decent sized batteries into a Defender battery box?



[edit] Use the advanced search function here http://www.aulro.com/afvb/search.php or google using www.aulro.com. as a search tag.

You'll get heaps of hits and tons of pics.

I'm not sure about the differences between the County and the Defender under the LH seat but my County had a dual battery install there. I'll try to find the pics. I'm sure I've put them up in another thread on AULRO.

Hi Bob

which end of Tassie are you?

I have cut out the slope on the floor in the battery box and welded in a folded up floor that now makes all of the floor flat.
By doing that I have room for; two N70ZZ batteries, the air compressor, a small 150 watt inverter, a heap of other gadgets and spare parts.

I did post a couple of photo's of the battery box on this forum !!!!! but where?.

Thanks Rick, I was starting at the wrong end first again.

In fact, some of us have even been known to run 3x batteries under the passenger seat.

Bob,

I'd be leaving the bigger start battery under the seat, and the second one in the back with the power outlets, isolator etc etc . Drop by when next in town and i'll show you what I mean.

Cheers Justin, Is it possible to fit a Second battery and leave the original starter?

Im down on the Peninsula.
