No, I don't have a current need. No refrigerator or other major draws. I put in a dual setup group 31/34 in the LC 200.I just scanned back through your entire thread, no dual batteries yet? Plans? Location? Not a fan of undersized batteries in the stock location, for sure won fit two Odyssey batteries 65 amp hr in there.

If I were to do a dual setup, I would remove SAIS with the Hewitt Tech Gen 2 bypass, clear out the space by the passenger firewall, and put the second battery in there (same location ad on 5th gen T4Rs). I would probably also do a big 3 upgrade and high output alternator at the same time.
If you are already going AGM, I assume you will be increasing your alternator voltage. It is more expensive, but for your secondary battery you might want to consider a Battle Born LiPO4 battery. They are smaller and lighter than equivalent AGM batteries, but are charged in the same voltage range. You are then more likely to find a spot to fit the secondary battery. I just would not recommend putting a lithium battery under the truck without skid protection - I would not want to run the fire risk if it was punctured.Unfortunately I have the secondary A/C system and have a plethora of A/C plumbing at the fire wall where the 4Runner battery goes. Thinking of installing the Odyssey 65-PC1750 in the factory location and a battery box with the 65-PC1750 and BCDC located in the spare tire area bolted to the cross members. More investigation is required.

Most people just use an electric heat pad of some sort powered by the battery itself.LiPO is not a good choice for me. I spend almost every week in the mountains during winter skiing. Trying to keep the LiPO warm even cabin mounted would be another level of complexity.
I have read that. Just a bit more work. If I was living out of a vehicle like #vanlife then the costs and hassle would be worth the trouble.Most people just use an electric heat pad of some sort powered by the battery itself.
I haven't gotten them installed yet. I am hoping to do it within the next few days. They are replacement fog lights that fit the ARB Summit bumper fog locations, which are an unusual size/shape. I will post photos once I am done.How do you like the Stedi replacements. Are they just foglights or combo driving light?
