I've been reviewing the previous posts and have been trying to figure out how to SECURELY mount a second battery under the MH. The current configuration has a tray that is showing signs of rust. I can squeeze 2 batteries width-wise into the tray, but have doubts about that tray holding ~120 plus lbs for very long. Wiring and replacing are also issues with that location. I might end up putting one or both batteries inside the unit - but cutting vent holes gives me pause!

I live 20 minutes north of you in West Dundee. I have a very sturdy used 2-battery tray that a trip with $10 to Menards will resolve the tired ball bearing tracks. The latching tray is very solid with lots of non-threatening surface rust inside the pan from boil-overs that can easily be washed off with Zep, sand, prime, and paint the whole thing and it will be like new. $10 and the tray is yours. I could email you dimensions and pictures if interested.

I used it for a pair of 12V batteries for 8 years until I just switched over to a pair of 6V batteries this season.

Here it was in action.
