Wow, buggered that one up didn't I?
Oh for an edit function.

I'm sure you get the drift and the link to the article works.

Sorry about that, its my first time on the forums and I was a little nervous. Anyway I have a 2005 Mitsubishi Pajero Exceed 3.2 Turbo diesel. There is plenty of room for the other battery. My intention will be to run an engel and lights whilst fishing and camping. What do you run from yours when your out and about.

cheers

Sorry about that Graham, I have a 2005 Mits Pajero Exceed 3.2 turbo. There is plenty room for the other battery. I will be running a fridge lights and what ever else makes a camping trip more comfortable for the wife.

cheers

One of my mates has one of these and he had a hell of a job to fit a second battery.
He ended up shifting some stuff and putting an Optima against the firewall on the passengers sidein a cradle he made himself.
I couldnt see anywhere that there was "Plenty of room" for a second battery

Graham last time I looked under my bonnet there was "plenty of room" for a second battery.

All I am after is some suggestions that I can do some research on. I didnt realise forums would be so frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cheers

Doc

They are only frustrating if you dont ask the correct question or fail to provide as much information as possible
.
Your first question was as vague as they come and as one poster said "Do a search on here"

If you did you would have found countless threads asking the same question and countless answers all with a different opinion.

The article provided by the site gives an insight into the ins and outs of the subject.

Even the difference of whether or not there is room is just the difference between opinions of what is enough and what is not.

I will however check which motor my mates has but it is a 2005/6 Exceed diesel.

Not being rude but had u posted a question like


""I have a 2005 Pajero Exceed diesel and would like to know which dual battery system is best and also what type of battery should i use.""
Something about why you want it EG to run a 80 ltr fridge,etc also helps as to battery capacity etc

You would have got more informative and correct answers.

See what I mean.

Cheers

Point taken, I will research the above threads.

Not having a fuse close to the + terminal on the Auxiliary Battery is a fire hazard.

The manufacturer has already provided fuses near the original battery.

Thanks mate, I will have a look at the RedArc

cheers
