1) battery frame was too small to fit batteries in (really?). This was an odd mistake as the angle iron was 1/4" to narrow to accept a battery. I left them as is and modified the compartment to hold 3 batteries.they fit nicely and in the future I'll be looking for a way to get a 4th in there.
(2)has anyone installed an inverter? If so where did you mount it and did you tie it directly into the converter?
3) what's up with the huge inaccesable void above the refrigerator? It looks like the front cabinet is glued on and there is no way to get in there without destroying the front panel. Has anyone got in there and utilize the space?
4) what's up with the huge waste of space above the generator? Look up and to the left when in your battery compartment and you'll see what I mean. Has anyone found a use for this yet?
Here is the link showing how I installed (4) 6 volt batteries:

I mounted my 2000 watt pure sine inverter right behind the batteries:

I pulled that panel off above the refrigerator and had a local cabinet company make a door. I turned that space into a nice sized cabinet.
I store extra water jugs in that area next to the generator
