BAttery box

Post by Macca »

We are about to give me more storage room under the bed before we start living in van for 12 mths. Battery box being made to go under van as we have plenty of height since it was raised & 2 batteries take up a lot of space. Got 2 quotes to make the box. One was almost $1000, the other $500. We have seen the work that both do so naturally going with the cheaper.

You can't get away with just telling us that little bit Kay :twisted: Are they going to be on a slide out tray, will the boxes be sealed, what are they going to be made from, all that stuff, you're just teasing :lol:

Batteries now out- boy, have I now got some under bed space. Only problem at moment- only inverter working. BBA says he needs an earth to get other things working before Yamba.
