My batteries in my Cougar XLite are behind the propane inside the nose cone and I am curions if I need to make any modifications, specifically:
1. to the battery tray (footprint size)
2. How much taller are they? Since they in inside the nose cone, there is a top clearnance I need them to fit under.
3. Battery box size (again, same as #2 and I am thinking 6v's are definitely taller)
Would love to hear from others who have T105's or can send me their measurements and if they needed another battery box.

My TT has the enclosed nose cone as well. A long time ago I thought of getting 6v batteries but my battery tray is built between the frame rails and the front lip is exactly the width of 2 grp. 24 batteries and the back lip is exactly the depth of the 24s. The measurements for a 6v would not work and I too was worried about the height. Did not get that far because I wasn't willing to cut out all the brackets and re weld new ones for 6v when we don't even dry camp...
