dual battery setup
Posted: Thu Feb 12, 2004 1:41 am
I placed an order today for 6 batteries to make the dual battery setup. I have been queastioned several time about it, so I decided to make a "bolt in" kit. The price is not set in stone yet, but I can tell you what it will entail:
battery
pre-made cables with ends
aluminum battery box, with hold down. They should be ready in two weeks, 3 weeks tops.
The second battery will mount between the fraim rails in front of the steering stem. There will be two ways to wire this.
1: 24v to the starter, like Jeff@quadshop has on his bike. I ran this setup and it works great. BUT, you do have to manually charge your 2nd battery.
2: 12v to the starter, both batteries wired together, basically the same as jump starting your quad. This will allow the 2nd battery to be charged, but won't start quite as quick as 24v.
The first kit is for my GNCC bike, so that leaves 5 for sale, I guess first 5 responses will have first shot at them as soon as they are done. If there is a positive response and everyone is happy, maybe I'll make some more. Thanks guys.
I am trying to keep this price as low as possible. So for look for price to be $100-$150
