How would a manufacturer know where you have put your second battery and thus the length of the cable?
Why not use a split charge system? No forgetting to switch it on then.

thought enough t3's around that someone might have knocked a load up, for the length that would allow one under either seat, being the natural place to have both batteries.

I don't have any batteries under either seat. One in the engine bay and one under the rear seat. The natural places to have the batteries!

ok ok!
i was assuming all t3's have had their batteries under their seats, when really, ive bought 3 t3s and they all happened to have batteries under their seats.
therefore i thought we were all sitting on one, as it were....

You can sit on what you want/like, to my mind they belong in the back with the engine that said I have one there and 2 in other places
