We have a Sun Ti 650 ME (2006) and would like to install a second leisure battery as we intend to do a bit of wildcamping when we visit the Shetland Isles next year.
There is plenty of room in the battery locker for the second battery. I have just visited a dealer who has said that it would be OK to just add a new 85 amp battery and that it is a reasonably straight forward installation providing the existing wiring is "man" enough to take the extra load.
I recall reading on one of the forums that it is recommended to have two new batteries rather than risk having mismatched ones.
Can anyone advise if any upgrade of the existing wiring is required and the merits of adding a new battery or having two new ones
Thanks in advance
