How Does TorkLift PowerArmor Solar Battery Box Mount and Can Two 6 Volt Batteries Make 12 Volts
Question:
How do you afix the box to the rails between the A frame? I know you use screws, but do I have to drill holes on the rails between the A frame? My trailer has one battery 6V and will add a second one. DO you have a cable to make those 2 batteries a 12V circuit?

To avoid having to drill holes in the trailer frame you could use u-bolts to go around the frame so you are only drilling holes in the bottom of battery box # TLA7708RS. Otherwise you would have to drill into the frame.
To connect two 6 volt batteries in series to get 12 volt output you would ground one battery, connect the positive of that battery to the negative of the other battery and then the positive of the second battery will have 12 volt output. I have included a picture illustrating this. There isn't a special cable for this.
