Help W/ Supercrew.........

Has anyone installed multiple batteries?
I always run 2 batteries but for as big as this truck is, doesnt seem like much room is left. Any ideas or examples?

Not real sure about the battery...

Great looking pics in the gallery! I like the maglight. How/where did you tie that in?

I have power seats, there is a 14Ga wire for powering the seat motors. I just tied into that, ran it thru the rocker switch, added split loom, and into the charger. Very easy and works great. The charger clamps onto the mag light and keeps me from replacing batteries. Thanks for the comment.

Tend to use the battery quite a bit when camping. Use the AC converter to power all kinds of stuff including compressor for fixing the toys (quad, rail, whatever) I cant tell you how many times I have run down a battery and been thankful I can just switch to the other one and start the truck, recharge the dead one and all is well. It comes in very handy!!!!!!!!

Checkout some of the Optima Batteries. They have a 6 Volt that is narrow and tall that looks like it would lend itself to many alternate mounting locations. Just remember you need 2 of them for a 12 volt system. Also, if you wanted to stick with a single 12V, the Optimas can be mounted in just about any position (including upside down I believe).
