Twenty year old camper, that’s how big the battery box is. It will only hold one battery, and a group 31 is the biggest that will fit. It is an AGM, so I don’t have to pay much attention to it. It would take some major remodeling to install a bigger box.
I’ve had an idea rolling around in my head for years of redesigning the step up into the overcab bed to include a a second big AGM battery there. That’s pretty doable for me, as we need the step anyway. But you know. $$$, time, effort, blah blah. :W
Oh, and if I were to do that, the battery I’d put there probably wouldn’t be THAT much less than $450. Might even be more, and I’d still need a good way to charge it while driving. I might not need 30 amps though, having more depth with two batteries.
:):)
Got it.
What about 2nd battery in bed of truck? I have seen folks do this.
In any case, lot’s of options for power. Sounds like you found your best option. Merry Christmas.
