Thanks Barry - you can email me - andrew at vividadventures dotcomau and I'll post 'em.

Our kits are now in production for the 3rd battery.

I would like to see the photo's to compare designs. We relocated the fuel filter and fitted a large 330mm tray to take a 100 a/h battery. We also had to fit a brace to the side guard for extra strength. I was not comfortable with the strength in the wheel arch.

We now have a very robust kit.

Regards Derek.

I Still dont understand the need to fit a 3 battery to the 100 series why not use a high capacity n70zz in one side and a trojan deep cycle in the other with a redarc controller?? I have done this conversion about three or four times and the owners have been rapt with it?

Picture as requested.

Here's Barry's pics:









Thanks Barry.

Thanks for all the piccies and details.

I have looked at the ARB 3rd battery setup which only allows for a smaller (50ah) battery in a powder coated battery tray. The apparent reason is that a larger battery (70 - 100ah) wont fit in the ARB tray and is heavier and the guard that supports it all may fail under all the weight. (sounds possible)

I have been advised many times not to change the 2 factory fitted battery wiring setup as this may void my warranty with toyota.?? (lso possible)

I think the safest option is the smaller third battery and to be careful if staying put for too long without a reacharge..... or the christies charger sounds great, but a bit dear in $$$.

Cheers
