79 Series LandCruiser

We are thrilled to unveil our latest DIY Dual Battery Kit: 79 Series LandCruiser 200Ah Behind-Seat DIY Kit. 

79 Series LandCruiser

This powerhouse setup features the cutting-edge 200Ah Super Slim lithium battery from Invicta, paired with your choice of the ultra-reliable REDARC DC2DC charger and a array of outlets to meet all your power needs.

Imagine this: a seamless dual battery system tucked neatly behind the seat of your Dual Cab Toyota '79 series, utilising what was once wasted space. We've fabricated a custom tray to securely mount the 200Ah lithium battery and all the essential components, and it comes preassembled for your convenience. Just mount the tray to your truck, utilising as many factory holes as possible to minimise drilling, and enjoy a rock-solid installation that stays put no matter the terrain.

But that's not all! The beauty of this custom tray lies in its functionality. It includes a six-way fuse box, a REDARC DC2DC charger, and plug-and-play outlets. With blue plugs for vehicle input, red plugs for solar input, and grey Anderson plugs for 12-volt power out, you can easily connect to your canopy or one of our socket boxes, which can also be included in the kit.

The 200Ah Super Slim Invicta Lithium Battery takes things to a whole new level with Bluetooth monitoring, allowing you to keep an eye on your battery status right from your phone. The battery itself features a display that shows percentage, voltage, and current usage at the touch of a button.

Why You'll Love It:

1. The Battery:

200Ah Invicta Super Slim Lithium Battery

The Invicta Lithium Super Slim battery is a slimline lithium battery designed to be Invicta’s slimmest battery ever. As vehicle manufacturers continue to push internal design limits on their vehicles, the traditional lithium battery is becoming increasingly difficult to fit in increasingly reduced available space.

The Invicta Lithium Super Slim battery was designed to combat this issue by using a 58mm wide frame, perfect for slipping behind the back seat or anywhere that might be a tight space. Its metal case also ensures it can handle any knocks or bumps when squeezed in a tight space. And all this without sacrificing any performance thanks to its prismatic cell construction.

With bluetooth monitoring and a massive 5 year warranty, the Invicta 200Ah Super Slime Lithium Batteries are a stand out from the rest. Invicta Lithium Battery Invicta Super Slim 12V 200Ah LiFePO4 Battery Bluetooth
