I have added two extra batteries to my Mountaineer. i just bought a couple battery boxes at Wal-Mart and 4 battery cables to connect them together. the battery boxes have straps that secure them to the compartment plate (floor). the cables run from one battery to the next. Positive to Positive and Negative to Negative. That is VERY IMPORTANT!
i didnt use the hose vent that came with the original box. in fact i removed the original and replaced it with a larger box to fit the large batterys. i figure there is enough air flow and ventilation in the front compartment already. It is not a sealed compartment by any means.
This works real well for us. we have ran 4 days and nights on a single charge. the 5th day we needed to get to a campsite with electric hookups, to re-charge.
