Second Battery best recommendations? Anyone install yet?

[Scott]

Has anyone put a second battery in their 4g Tacoma or does anyone have any recommendations for a kit?

I’m planning to eventually. The only company that I’ve found that says they’re working on one is Blaze Off Road.

I just finished putting one of these in. It fits right behind the stock battery. It fits perfectly back there. I did have to tap in two places.

I have two auxiliary batteries in my Tacoma. One is located in the Goosegear rear-seat delete. The second is in my canopy camper.

The backseat battery is a 50Ah Li off Amazon. It's charged off a pair of 2A/4A/8A DC-DC chargers. One charger is relayed off the engine and only charges when I'm driving. The second charger is switched direct off the starting battery. I turn it on when I'm in camp for extended periods when I have the starting battery hooked up manually to solar. This battery runs a second fridge behind the seat, and my HAM radio.

Camper battery is a Group 24 Li 100Ah from Amazon. It's charged off a 190W Zamp Solar panel. It also has a 2A/4A/8A DC-DC charger, but I haven't needed it so it's not hooked up. This battery runs the outlets and lights in the camper, the water pump, and the fridge. When I'm in camp it runs the Starlink Mini.

These were cobbled together. They were not kits.
