adding a second battery

When I park my Jag I plug in the maintainer. This car seems to always need a little top-me-off when I park it. I wired the plug to come out at the right rear corner of the boot just above the bumper. The small hole is under the boot lid and only shows about 1.5 inches of the wire and plug. RTV holds it in place and prevents water from getting in. Very convenient and unplugs itself if I forget it. I also cover the old girl at all times because I have a Beagle that likes to get on our cars. Only way to keep the little dog alive. lol

Between the upgraded headlights, electric cooling fans (I ditched the engine-driven one), more powerful stereo, my though that I need to let the fans run after shutdown during the summer, and my general propensity for overkill, I'd rather have two batteries than one, so that when I drain one I'll still be able to start.
Plus...I already have a second battery that's in good shape, so I might a well use it.
