dual battery system for 03 turbo hilux

G'day Steve,
If you use the search funtion on this site you will find plenty of great information on many different brands.
Piranha and Rotronics are popular units and seem to work well, but seem quite expensive, especially the Rotronics unit, but I guess you often get what you pay for. However, it is probably worthwhile you check out Redarc which is considerably cheaper and has been recommended by a number of people on this site. Redarc is the system fitted by most autoelectricians.
As for DIY if you have the know how go for it, and put that money towards a winch.

Cheers,
Simon."Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand."

Steve,

The under bonnet space is extremely limited hence you can only fit a small aux battery (225mm long) so dont expect to run too much for too long. I am currently in the process of upgrading the aux battery size and mounting it in the back. I have a Rotronics MH 10 which seems to work OK. but the aux. cannot be of greater capacity than your starting battery.
