I have a seperate 12v as well but seems to run down fast for a newer batt. I maintain with a 2-4amp trickle. Just wondering if you had one of those $$gel 12volts. The ones that look like 6 tennis ball cans shrinkwrapped in yellow plastic....Sams sells them.

Hey, Pimp Daddy, I don't see any hold-downs on those batteries.

You are right, The batteries have not had any hold downs since I've had it.All of the miles put on it have been inside the Campground.Everything if fairly flat and have not had any trouble with the batteries shifting.They fit in the battery box fairly tight,not much room for movement.

Between you and I, that's fine, but the yonger guys need to know that if they ever transport their buggy on a trailer those batteries COULD bounce around and cause all manor of havock behind the family truckster.

Gman,
Never thought of that.Have not transported Casper except the time I brought it from the beach,to work on it, before the show.There again it was transported @ 500 miles, on an open trailer.The only problems I encountered was a lost F/R shifter knob(screw must have worked loose),and the ratchet straps worked loose.Even with my wild driving ,Ive not had any battery containment problems.

Talking Re: Your Custom Radio and Speaker installations

I found out about the battery hold downs the hard way. I carry the GT Cruiser in the back of a toy hauler. When the plastic batt. holder snapped the batts. were tilted every which way. I turned out to be a good thing though, I found a lot of rust on the battery rack (?). Just finished sanding/priming/painting all the angle iron and reinstalling the batts. Looks like brand new.

Both are made from a piece of laminate flooring. And believe it or not, the boxes in the roof took me about 2 hours each to build!

Where do you run the wires when you mount in the overhead and keep it so neat?
