Piranha dual battery tray

I also have the USI-160 kit. I didn't have enough thread on that teminal to do anything with so I ended up getting a new earth lead made up for the aux battery and ran it down to the bolt on the chassis. That way I didn't have to stuff around with that flimsy terminal.

When I finally get my Piranha tray this week (ordered in January :mad:) my plan is to re-wire so that I have a single positive running to the ex-box and run all the wiring from the back to there instead of the current temporary bird's nest I have in the battery compartment. I'll then earth the ex-box back to the bolt on the chassis too.

Cheers,
Jon

Ahhh the spiteful LR battery post terminal strikes again!

Easier to add additional accessories if needed IMO, and same specs as a yellow top.

Mitch, which one?

Also, what's a good type of negative terminal to use? There's not much room in there with a dual battery setup...

I used the Optima P/N D34M. It's a BCI Group 34 size optima with the blue top, grey sides, and the SAE posts and threaded terminals.
Its a hybrid style AGM good for cranking and deep cycle. 55Ah, 770 IIRC CCA...

Got it thru RRturboD on here.

Just keep in mind your battery tray is different to the one I used... so consult the supplier for which BCI class battery you need to use.
