Has anyone had any experience with the all in one Cranking and Deep Cycle batteries. I am struggling to find space in the engine bay of my 2.8 Diesel Hilux for a deep cycle battery. Have had suggestions of shifting the washer bottle etc, but from what I can see, the main problem will be height restriction caused by the height of the wheel
well. I am not too keen on having the 2nd battery in the tray. Even the Optima batteries look to be too big for the space.

Remember the optima deep cycle can be mounted any where in the vehicle, even sideways if needed...etc.....Have seen them mounted in rear luggage area of Pathfinders, or behind
seat in king/extra cab utes...
I'm having an optima deep cycle fitted to my caravan as it will also fit the Pathfinder if needed...(and can be carried in luggage area as a spare when doing trips like simpson etc..)

I believe optima now recommend that the battery be ventilated while being charged.
