I've seen people having an extra car battery in the boot for the extra ICE they have.
I am thinking of installing a small extra battery in the arm rest to boost the power of my existing racing battery. Question is, what is the proper way or doubling a battery and is there a problem with mixing different battery types and size? For instance, can I add a small 12v motorcycle battery with the 12V car battery? |

Relocation of the battery to the passenger foot well?

Also - if the car crashes, the battery can squirt acid all over your passenger. If it is a safety hazard, I'd even avoid the trunk. Maybe try and squeeze it somewhere in the engine bay. -------------------- |
