So my van came equipped with a battery isolator and it had a lead acid starter battery mounted in back, not even a deep cycle battery. (seriously?!)
I have removed the battery isolator, run the line to the starter battery to run to the back, and installed my DC to DC charger / MPPT charge controller, disconnected the 110v converter as it is not Lithium compatible, and all I have left is to route the signal wire for the DC to DC charger to a switched accessory fuse, and install the battery bank. (And secure the DC to DC charger / charge controller). And install the battery bank of 2 200 amp hour Chins Lifepo4 batteries.
To accomplish this I need the original battery box gone.
I see no fasteners anywhere on this setup.
So how do I get this battery box gone, it is just glued to the floor?
The view under the cabinet and yes I know it is messy in there right now. I will tidy up once everything is in place...
The view from underneath. Will likely use this hole to route the wire, need a sufficient grommet to keep water out though... I assume this was a vent / drain for the battery box...
I don't care if prying it out destroys the battery box, I just don't want to hurt the floor of the van or anything else like that...
FWIW, the location the converter is living in right now, well I am removing that converter and have no intent on installing a new one, so the DC to DC charger / MPPT charge controller will live there. I MAY just use a Lifepo4 compatible 110v charger at some point, but want to try alternator and solar for now...
