Hello guys.


I saw this batteries on Ebay and was wondering if they are any good for a dual battery set up in the zook.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... L:RTQ:AU:1

I want to set up a dual battery system to run a fridge, lights, CB radio and a battery charger (for the torches, walkie talkie, camera, etc).

Apart of the battery, the tray and the isolator what else do I need??? I'm running a 65 amps alternator at the moment.


Thanks in advance for your advice.

Will

it won't run a fridge for very long at all. It's only 33Ah! I would suggest a lot larger capacity battery.

I have a Trojan in my GQ for the aux, awesome batteries. 110a/hours and 820cca. Are a bit dearer about $200-$250 I think but well worth it, will run my engel 3 days withoutrecharging. Are are also a bit bigger than a N70zz, so depends how much room you got :D

Zooks have room enough in the engine bay, but I want to keep it as clear as possible, cause I don't know what engine I will fit in it down the track.
