2 Battery banks built from 6 volts
Hi all, I did a quick search of the forum but couldn't find what I was looking for. I have a 2018 17ft Jayco travel trailer. The majority of our camping is in the middle of nowhere. (boondocking) ...

Thanks for all the ideas. I don't really want to switch to sealed batteries as I have the 6's already. Also I do not have enough room under the bed as that is where our storage for all our other stuff is,
I'm sure I could come up with a mounting system on the tongue, I am just a little skeptical of weight on the tongue. I currently travel with a ATV deck that sits on the back of my truck. It is 8 foot long but can fit a 6 foot box. It over hangs off the back of my truck 2 feet (I have a short box)
In order for me to be able to back the trailer up and get into tight spots I had to get a short hitch extender so I don't crunch the deck against the trailer. That is the reason I am stuck on the tongue weight.
I know they make the super hitch system, but that's isn't cheap and really isn't in the future.
Adding another 120 lbs I'm sure will be ok, I just thought, since I have some space under the ATV deck, that would be a good spot.
I have attached a picture of the setup. In this picture the truck has been pulled away slightly from the hitch of the trailer, but should give you an idea of how the ATV deck encroaches on my trailer.
