Hi, well I'm kinda new at this and I am going to mount my first generator in my truck soon (2004 F150 5.4L). I am trying to mount it in the truck box to avoid clutter under the hood. I will be using a 11 plate drycell with a 30A max PWM. I don't have any test results yet as the PWM is not here yet.
Anyway, I am stuck on trying to find / build a CHEAP reservoir / bubbler to mount in the truck box. Since the cell is to be gravity fed, and the truck box is not that deep, I would like to keep it about 6" deep, and about 12" x12".
My plan up until now was to use a PVC electrical junction box. My problem is that it seems that the water in the tank would slosh around and eventually make it's way into the tube that leads to the engine.
Any ideas as to how to avoid this, or any ideas on how to construct a better tank?
Thanks.
