With that if you like put in 4 holes around the bottom section and weave in a tie wrap- one of those 2 footers...

    12v equipment

    The general consensus is that prolonged and consistent drain on one battery will eventual destroy one or both batteries, if your using it for a few amps for a phone charger, and other low draw devices you should be alright, how ever if your going lets say over a few amps and a consistent drain...

    Vertical Welding Question

    If not sure of your welds, always use right angle flanges, drill the trailer frame and then into the bottom of whatever your placing on top of it, into its frame or right through the floor, every couple of feet with a big washer/plates with 3/4 inch carriage bolts - better safe than sorry.
