First time battery builder, and am confused about battery compression. I have this space in my camper that is waisted and would be a great place to put a battery. It would free up a lot of space where the AGM is now. It’s a small teardrop camper I built.
I’m planning an EVE 230AH battery from Amy Z.
I was planning to build a case to hold the battery to protect it and have a way to mount it securely. The camper goes off-road so things get bumped around a lot. I have a table that fits in front that will also help protect the battery. I am planning on using Anderson plugs to make it easy to remove since this tongue box gets very hot in the Arizona summers. I’ll store the battery in the house when not being used.
My power usage is not very big, under 20 AH per day on a heavy use day. But because of the small teardrop I don’t have much room for solar installed or deployable. I do carry two 100 watt panels.
Any ideas on how I should build this?
Thanks
Todd
