Guys,
I have searched through the two battery threads and did not find exactly what I was looking for.
My ONLY reason for wanting to add a second battery is to improve my CG (move it forward on an RV6).
The question-
Can I simply add a second 680 in parallel and nothing more? Will it charge properly, or cause problems somewhere like too many amps for starter or load for alternator?
I guess I could replace the 12v with two 6v and wire them in series if that makes a difference.
I have a vac system/steam gauges and LASAR/Slick mags and no real need for redundant electrical systems. I thought "If I am going to add weight up front, why not increase the battery capacity?" Hard to find a heavier chunk of balast that would not be too hard to add.
Thanks for the help-
