Ok while on the subject, whats the largest mAh battery available to suit a VZ, i have a car fridge that wont last more than 8 hours if left on, need to try get a few more hours

Can you get larger physical sized batteries to fit, or is there a specific battery that would fit and is recomended by anyone

power wise, yea, thats about the max u can get, with the fridge in my car, i have a second battery (deep cycle) with a electronic isolator to charge it when car is running and disconnect it, so you dont get flat batteries

Where did you mount your second battery?

battery in the boot lol

its basically 20cm2 cable running from the battery through the car via and 150 amp anl fuse in the engine bay, to the anderson fitting that can be disconnected and stored in the little storgae compartment in the back,

on the battery box i have mounted a 150 amp electronic isolator and another anderson plug to the supply leads for easy removal from the car, anyway pictures speak a thousand words

enjoy
