Hi. My battery tray is setup for 4 GC2 size batteries. I wouldn't mind replacing them with a Vatrer 12v Lithium 460AH however, the Vatrer (as most other Lithium replacements) are over 10" deep while that battery tray is about 8". I would have to heavily modify the tray (which sits just below the air filter) and find a way to secure the Lithium.
Curious if anyone has done what I'm thinking about? There would be room for the new battery just in front of the air filter but angle iron would need cutting and a bracket made.
 
You might look at the 100ah batteries (SOK is a good choice). These are 11.5x6.7 at the base and 8.6” tall.

Even if you only put in 2, your getting 200ah with 180 useable compared to the less than 80 useable in your existing gc2
 
I would need 4 of those...I will look at those but right now their website isn't responding.
 
Thanks. Website working now. I would want a heater builtin which those don't have. Plus, in multiples I wrecks my budget.
