    Thank you for this. My Range Rover sport has just died and I am now looking at replacing it with an L322. I am part of a 4x4 Response group, so my boot is full of kit, including a leisure battery, an EcoFlow, collapsible cones, tow stripes etc. etc. Looking at the L322 and what you have done, I will hopefully be able to loose my leisure battery and all the control box stuff for my Amber beacons etc. so I am now in the planning stages, so your videos were very useful. Thanks.

      Hi Baz, thanks for the feedback! Be picky when buying an L322, much like when buying an L320. There are loads on the market now and they are so cheap that it can be difficult to weed out the good ones. Most things are reasonably easy to fix, just avoid the majorly rust ones or ones with any signs of water ingress from the sunroof. The leaks themselves aren't difficult fixes, but the water damage to the looms/ECUs can be a royal PITA. You'll spend months chasing a problem with suspension which ends up being a corroded wire in the footwell lol. Also, although my second battery has worked well for my fridge et al, I have now added a Bluetti Charger 1 (video coming) which will then allow me to power a Bluetti (or others actually) powerstation. This is because I needed quite a lot more power to run my diesel heater for an upcoming trip to the Arctic Circle. Good luck with the search, and thanks for watching!

      @@Dadulthood Thanks for that. After owning two L320’s I am aware of the quirks of Range Rovers. I will have a very good look around the car before I purchase anything, I may even get an AA inspection done first. I think I will buy from a dealer so at least I have some comeback this time. My last L320 which died on Sunday had been a good car for over two years. Just coming up to 111,000 miles. Regularly serviced by a LR independent, but without notice the crankshaft let go. Now it will be up for Spares or Repairs. At the moment I have an Ecoflow Delta, which I run a small battery charger from to top up my leisure battery. All of my Amber strobe lights and matrix signs run from that. It is also very handy having 230v available if I need it for the caravan. I charge the Ecoflow with an Ecoflow alternator generator which comes straight off the vehicle battery and when the engine is running, it charges the Ecoflow at 800 watts. So it doesn’t take too long. I am hoping to transfer that set up to the L322. The one thing I will miss will be the extra storage under the back seats that I have in the L320. I like your storage build in the boot. I may try something like that, for just one side as I need to get the dogs in as well. Keep up the good work. Thanks. Baz

      Hi, and thanks for the feedback. I'm always trying to improve, but still learning. What areas would you like me to film more of, that might be helpful for you?

      @@Dadulthood thanks much for considering. I would like to see what wire goes to what before you install so that I can also repeat the same when I'm doing the install.

    Hi, bought the same dual battery kit. I wonder if you have a sort of map of the connections. I am struggling with the way I should connect the DC to DC device and the little fuse box. May be you can help me with this. I will really appreciate it.

      Hiya, they can be a bit overwhelming if it's not something you've done before. If you have a look at this item on ebay you'll find one of the photos is a complete diagram of how to install it. Hope it helps! www.ebay.co.uk/itm/404627001121?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=epkjxpvotkk&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dZBn-E1dTYu&var=674619159912&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
