After extensive research on the wiki, i know the alfa batteries 80ah will fit under the seat with the flap down, but was looking for something about 110ah that will fit with battery flap down.. any ideas from the t3 oracles out there ?

There is no pont in putting in a 110ah battery unless they are all the same. Its no point even putting in an 80ah if your starter is a 60ah as when the split charge relay kicks in one will always be draining the other and the biggest battery will only ever get charged to the smallest in the loop.
I have a 100ah elecsol under one seat, a 65ah under the other and a 65 as a starter so no matter what I do even though theoreticaly I have 165ah of leisure batteries they will only ever hold a charge of 130ah, 2 X 65ah.
Pretty sure that's correct.
Does that make any sense?
