Hello,

I installed on of these last year and have just cooked my 2nd, 2nd battery.

I have been told that it was heat both times and do not have much spare cash laying around to keep this up.

I really want to keep the battery there, if possible as maximizing space in the wagon is a priority (it's a long drive to woolies ).

Any ideas for protecting my 2nd battery from under bonnet temps?

I have seen discussions suggesting foil blankets , electric fans and even a bonnet scoop. It's a pretty tight squeeze to get the bare battery into the tray and the least mucking around would be better.

Even if I do manage to protect the battery better, have we come to a consensus about which type/brand/model of battery would stand a chance againgst my under bonnet temps?

Thanks in advance,

Cam
