    Nice one…poking around
    Nice one…poking around under seats, I might be able to find space for them under there, which would be nice. I’ve heard of people doing this before, but how would you went them?

    Under the passengers seats is
    Under the passengers seats is a good place for batteries. If the batteries has the little plastic vent pipes you can drill a hole in the floor and have them poke outside. If they don’t have the pipe you’ll need to make a box, and have a hole in the floor where the gasses can escape.

    Gas vent near exhaust?
    Hi, I noticed Davey mention not to have a battery exhaust near a hot exhaust pipe. Is this because of potential ignition ?
    What about having a gas bottle floor vent situated near the exhaust pipe? and if this is dangerous, what safe distances should I consider? my final plan layout currently lands the gas canister in front of the rear right-hand wheel arch or my LDV Convoy, not far above where my exhaust outlet is.

    venting leisure battery
    Does a gel battery still need to be vented? I’m planning to put the leisure battery in the metal base of the driver seat, which is not a sealed box but am not sure if I need to enclose it and put vent in.
