Small Aux / Second Battery (1 Viewer)

[Tapage]

Hello all .. Cleopatra = VDJ76L-RKMNYV - Cleopatra have very limited engine bay free space .. in RHD the second or aux battery goes inline behind the main one on our drivers side .. the RHD version obviously have more space there since all brake and steering stuff it's on the other side ..

Well not my case on LHD Cleo ...

So I either go with a battery inside the cabin ( alternative I don't like ) or some sort of small battery that will work as good an regular battery to put in there all the aftermaket stuff I have planned for her ..

I've been looking around these options ..

Amazon product ASIN B000LUDEOI
as an alternative .. right now I'm in the mood the smallest the better ..

I'll appreciated all comments ..

what about using a group 51/51r, similar size and porbaby going to be easier to find in a pinch. when you start looking at smaller batteries that will work for a utv/atv just check that it is an agm or lead acid as some of tha batteries are lithium ion or lithium iron and that have a different charge rate as the lead acid batteries.

ive read the builds on the trucks and you do some good work

What about lithium batteries ?

my impression of lithium (ferrous P) batteries is that they are much lighter than a Lead acid for the same Ah, but not significantly different in volume.
