I have decided to add an Odyssey PC 680 as a second battery, but I've already finished the wiring setup using Van's battery tray and an Odyssey 925L. I hate to put it in the baggage area and was wondering if anybody had any comments on building a new battery tray above the existing one. I was thinking that a couple of angles between the longerons combined with a vertical anchored to the existing stock tray might be rigid enough for a 680. Looking for comments and suggestions.

John,
Just a thought but a small tray just ahead of the main battery tray with the 680 turned 90 degrees. I used two 680s in a Mike Sausen designed/modified tray...the airplane cranks and runs fine on just one...so I'm very happy with those batteries..

Thanks to all, I've gotten several private comments and it probably makes more sense putting it on the firewall. Found a great place - the cabin side of the firewall above the co-pilot pedals. Had to move the brake reservoir, but no big deal.
