Pictures of your dual battery set up ?
Anyone have pics to post of dual battery's set up in the console ?
Thinking about doing mine - moving the single battery from the transom compartment, up to the cuddy. Set one up for starting, the other for all electronics, lights, pumps and a switch for either and " both " in case I need extra starting juice. I have an idea going so far to avoid most visible wires and securing the dual batteries. |
This is on my list of things to do too! I hope someone posts some pics. I bet Destroyer has 2 or 3 batteries in his V21.

No, I don't have a dual bat system yet. It's one of my "to-do" projects. I already have the dual battery switch wired in, now I just have to run the cables, etc for the new location. I'm going to put mine right where I put the new hatch in the deck. (Just about even with the pilots chair, in the center of the deck). Seems a perfect place for me. It removes some weight from the rear and re-positions it in the middle of the hull. Can't think of a better place, just seems a natural. :head: |

I moved my batteries to my cuddy this past summer. Next chance I get I will get some pics. You're gonna need some heavy wire. At least 2ga to go directly to the motor.

I went outside and took some pics.

The wiring is a little messy because it was all moved around when I moved the batteries. And I wanted to get out to Tice's. http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/...psjwllsqf8.jpg http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/...pskotwktpw.jpg Hope this helps. |
Pete, that's a nice rig. I especially like how you got the batteries up off the floor with the wood base. I think I'm gonna steal that design when I do mine.
Thanks for the pics.!!:party: |
Yes! Thank you for the pics. My boat is covered with 10 inches of snow, so will have to wait to get started.

Capt - thanks for taking time to post pics for us - looks like an excellent solution.

I'm not much for wiring............and the shop I prefer tells me it will be a costly project.
Hum..........maybe I should stick with installing new cup holders .... |
