I am in process of installing a second battery, Lithium slim line 100Ah battery inside the LHS in boot area with a DC/DC redarc charger plus a couple relays, which all fit nicely tucked away behind the side panel. I installed 2 Anderson outlets on the other side of the boot area in the little alcove. I have a RRS 2016 not sure yours is the same setup, but have a look..
cheers, Peewee
Have the same model year. Yes I am now of the opinion that the best bet is to do what you have done. You said have a look ? Where would I find this? I am thinking of putting the Lithium on the LHS , adding DC/DC and perhaps an inverter so I can charge my e-bike batteries on the go. Have you designed a battery mount ?
I have now obtained manual , so have a better idea of the system.
seems like a lot of $ for a glorified bracket.

Hi Bails, are you progressing with this ? I need to do something similar... also keen for suggestions of getting power cable from new battery out the back to an anderson plug without compromising water-tightness.

I have two Anderson Plugs , I didn't install my Son in Law did but looks neat , unsure how they exit. I am up to installing Light Bar and Cel Fi Go , Thinking for now is just run the Cel Fi from second battery as only half Amp draw.
I may leave the Lipo 4 battery install for now , need to do more research and am having difficulty getting info. I would really like to replace second battery with Lipo4 but can't get a definitive answer on my questions.
At the moment I am looking into weights for towing , I reckon I have about 500 kgs available on the rear axel , vehicle has 750 payload but rear axel weight is an issue.
I have noted the 7 seat has 200 kg higher rear axel weight but can't find out what components have been changed to allow this?
take off ball weight,, and??
I should be ok,, not planning on anything in the car behind the front seats except two puppies...
and I hope for only 200 on the ball

iTechworld are now claiming drop-in IPO4 batteries for all vehicles including those with smart alternators. I have sent them electrical system manual and asked if this would mean the second battery would still charge as I will have to replace both batteries.
If I can replace the batteries with LIPO4 I will save a lot of weight and also now have the ability to run fridge and of course charge the second battery via solar.
Let's see what turns up.
