Second battery for SWB TD42

Post by swbpatrol »

Gooda
I was just about to get a second battery for my SWB TD42 and i was thinking of putting the same as my main battery. Will a Delkor N70ZZ happily run a fridge overnight and worklights from time to time without flatening everytime or will i need to go deepcycle????

Mine is set up like this. Got a arb tray, N70ZZL (will have to check this as Nissan terminals are oposite to toy ones) and just have positive to positive and negative goes to a bracket just next to the tray. All joined by heavy duty batt cable.

Then off the terminal I have 20amp wire running into the car for acc (both + and -). With a fuse at the terminal.
Will eventually run to a fuse block just behind the drivers seat (this is a gunna job). Which will be the fuses for extra plugs (behind center console and rear of car) and reversing lights.

I have a similar setup and i run the fridge 24-7...... My daily driving to work and back keeps it going... The car sat for 4 days three weeks ago in a carport in 35degree heat each day and the fridge was still on 1.5degrees....

Ensure you get 'L' terminals so it can be swapped for main batt if req.
ie N70zzL
