I will be relocating the battery(ies) to a storage compartment next to the existing battery location. I want Li batteries since we do a lot of boondocking, but the cost is really prohibitive.I will hook up an amp meter to the battery for the first few trips to see what kind for draw I will be dealing with and a adjust my battery purchases accordingly I will probable start with (2) 6 volter, getting me some decent ah (adding to that if needed), add solar for recharging, then add li battery as the last piece of the puzzle. Li batteries will probably be 3 years out or so.

Just one battery. There was a fresh water tank, water pump, h/w heater, and an outside storage cubby, as well as the battery under the bed. The cubby and the tank formed a blind corner, a perfect place to hide store a battery.

I have opened everything I can on the inside. It there is a space that I can not get to on the inside, there is a corresponding storage space, furnace, h/w heater, refrigerator, propane tank, generator, rear wheel wells I have located said battery. It was indeed, Herman, located under the bed. I had to reexamine the space utilization there, and move the wood platform the bed sat on (It is two piece plywood hinged in the middle for access) that I thought was screwed down on the back side. This also explained the a hole in the back of the house (which went to the battery box to vent gases from the battery). Thank you all for your help and suggestions. Steve

Thank you for the replies. I am on a Chevy G30 van chassis. Driver's side holds the chassis battery. Passenger side has A/C components crammed there. There is nothing located at the steps. There is nothing located next to the generator. Lastly, I have accounted (I believe) for all of the compartments outside the house to the inside as well as looking at the underside of the chassis to see if there is an additional space not accounted for. I am stumped.

I have recently purchased a 1994 Seven Seas By Cobra RV. As I have spent some time getting familiar with the systems, I have discovered that I can not find the cabin battery(s). At all. I know I have one somewhere and it should be easy(?) to get to. An assumption that I am making is that the battery would be in an outdoor environment, and will not be located within the living space. I have opened all I have disconnected the chassis battery as a last resort (hard to tell what some people will do for a quick fix). Thoughts?
