Battery for my 2013 Jk

[TacticalBBQ]

So I am just a weekender and my ARB 50qt is not in my Jeep 24/7. I don’t have the funds to do a dual battery set up at this time. But I definitely want to upgrade my battery. Anyone out there that can help me choose what fits my needs would be awesome. I have no clue when it comes to electrical.

Thanks

Some folks do a thing where they install a nice, fat group 31-sized battery and get by for a couple days with the fridge(not set to freezing), and still have enough for starting. Can a group 31 be made to fit under the hood of a JK?
AGM "combo start + deep cycle" batteries are generally favored for this use.

I've got a single Odyssey 34R-PC1500 in my JK with a 50qt ARB. I don't have any complaints with this setup.

I have been running my ARB50 in my jeep for the last 2 years and just using stock battery without issue. It sits often for 2 days at a time but usually not longer than that. fridge is set to 36F.

Carry a good jump pack. It's a good idea no matter how many batteries are in the vehicle, but I consider it crucial when there's only one, especially when it has a constant load on it, like a fridge.
