Wiring in additional batteries? I used to use an isolator, but I now use a voltage sensing relay. In addition to automatic operation, it can be wired for override.

Voltage sensing is the only way to go these days. Some years ago I tried tapping an ignition fuse just to power a tiny relay on a Dodge pickup and about 1 time out of 4 the thing just would not start. Like the key switch was not even functional. You know these new key switches are not even a real switch any more.
Well after hours of poking around we sent it to another electronically minded mechanic and he discovered if the infinitesimal load was removed from that 20 amp fuse it worked fine. So we put a voltage sensing relay on the battery and everything was fine.

What is going in the back corner? It looks like its waiting for a crane.

Now, seeing what you were talking about earlier with the raised floor for storage, I really like it. The whole package looks really well thought out. Still looks monstrous for a 550. Can't wait to see it all come together.

I just don't see how that won't be over weight. My stellar 11ft with crane, compressor, and welder on my Pete 337 is 23.5k without my bulk tanks.
