Hodge's new 4.2

[Hodge]

Well, bit of an addition to this build last week. Upgraded the aux battery system to itech lithium and intervolt dcdc units. Happy with the setup now. Power for days. And absolutely love the intervolt display showing various bits of info.
Saved just under 30kg of weight too. Old AGM was nearly 40kg and this lithium is only 12kg. Every kilo counts in the Patrol so, this is a bonus.

I know F.a about the intervolt thingo. But what did the battery set you back? I want to put a battery in the same spot as you but I don't want to be putting an AGM or the likes there.

Intervolt is a Aussie made dcdc charger from WA. Basically like any other dcdc unit, but i loved this one due to it's display.
The battery was just over $900.
Ironically the AGM I got through Yeti's Beast , which I thought was stuffed is still purring along flawlessly. It's been running my fridge forever and still going... So I have a spare 100ah AGM here if i ever need.
