Auxiliary battery. Confused

[Howard]

I am a bit confused. Apart from the obvious extra battery and split charger what else does the auxiliary battery option include. Do you get any pre wired switches or additional outlets?

 

[TheDocAUS]

The additional switches and circuits come from the High Power Aux Switch option, not aux battery option.

The INEOS website description of the Aux Battery option tells you nothing (which I assume is why your need to ask).

It may include the second 5 stud busbar and I am not sure if it also includes the CTEK120S. I do not know for sure as I have a dual setup.

 

[parb]

the way they did it is that they made two batteries behave as one.
You don't get separate switches etc on the second battery, you get the second battery added to the first battery as additional capacity.

So does the basic truck come with and spare overhead switches?

Take as look at the Rok Dr Guide it answers that question and many others. @Rok_Dr

Thank you guys excellent support as always.

I have purchased a pre built new Gren commercial (UK) which has the auxiliary battery option and thought it included roof top socket outlets. It's not a problem but wish the Ineos web was more detailed.

Also included is ruff and smooth pack, rear ladder, tow pack , alt - compass and leather seats. It's Inky black running on steels with Bfg's.

I have also purchased a secondhand set of unused 17" alloys and Rock sliders as well as a spare wheel storage box.

Hopefully take delivery next week.
