    You can always just hook up another battery in parrallel, similar to how you would jump start a car.

    It's pretty simple. Buy a split charge relay and run a cable from the positive on the front battery to the positive on the rear. Relay sits in between both batteries and connects to the ignition. Earth the rear battery to the chassis. When the ignition is on (I.e. the engine is running) the rear battery gets charged. When the engine is off the rear battery is isolated.
