What about the cable that joins the 2 batterys together ? it would be passing the space between the 2 front seats ( the walk through ).
What about charging the 2 batterys, on the go ? will my engine alternator cope ?
What about EHU ? will my charging unit cope okay with charging the 2, 85ah batterys ? |
I prevously had a Bessecar & fitted another 110 under the drivers seat, it just went in, but measure it carefully.
There may not be room if the seat is a swivel type.
I ran the wires under the carpet between the seats, there was a lip in the floor so I ran them taped close to that.
As far as I could tell the engine coped well with charging the extra battery & my solar panel worked with the set up.
My present motor home has 2 110's and the built in charger copes with charging them.
No doubt someone will shortly mention that two batteries should be the same age and size to be effective as well as having leads the same length. If you are not sure about connections please ask someone before you try it
