Use this for your dual battery system. I know quite a few guys who use it (I use it as well) and it is the best in the west. Cost approx R1200

Canopy looking snazzy :thumbup:

Looking very nice. U make it look easy. Nick, if you would take a guess, what will the steel framed alloy covered empty canopy weigh when finished?
