Fitting an internal Auxliary Battery to my Disco 2

<< < (3/3)

Fit dry cell battery then you don't have to worry about gases or major vibrations.

I had the frame made to measure. it is made of steel inch square tubing which I have painted black. (they wanted too much money for powder coating!)

The batteries were from a caravan dealer, and the inverter is sterling combi inverter/charger. (1600w continuous and 40 amp charge)

I have a split charge system using nothing more than a simple 40a automotive relay.

I know this is a bit of an overkill, but then again, I did it because I can!

I have mounted the inverter on top of the batteries.

I have mounted the positive cable from the batteries inside a piece of hosepipe to protect them :D

Wow, like the work you have done there. I could run my house off that. Fair play.
