I have asked this before but with my latest dead battery, I am ready to move on moving and replacing the battery. What is the best battery for the RV 4? I will put it on the firewall or in the luggage area.
Thanks

I still like the Concord RG-25.

IMHO; YMMV....
I'm building an RV-3B rather than a -4, but the cowl is similar. At the suggestion of a visiting RV-4 pilot, I decided to install my EarthX 680C battery in the right-hand cowl cheek extension.

It's snug but does fit, at least on the RV-3B.
The photo does not show the hatch, but you can see the top piano hinge and the location of the bottom one, as well as where the hatch overlaps the extension.
I put the ground forest of tabs on the inside skin just aft of the battery, so the link between them is quite short. You can see the pass-through brass fastener left of the battery.
