The power sonic is 21ah capacity. If I'm understanding it correctly, I just need a bit more capacity.

Anyone have any idea of the largest battery tray one can fit in the battery area? The 15 dump pack tray appears to be about 7.75" x 12" outside measurement. It looks like 7.75" is about as wide as it can get, but it appears it could get about an inch longer without causing any issues. Can anyone confirm?

This is less than 1/2" wider (thereby needing a 1/2" longer tray), and it's 45ah... it's got F2 terminals, though and I don't know if a connector is available to make it work:

And here's a 60ah that's less than an inch and a half wider.

And here's a 26ah that's actually slightly smaller than the powersonic.

I wonder if a 20% increase in capacity would be sufficient to resolve my cold start issue..? Thoughts? Or recommendation on a larger battery tray size?
