Got all these pretty lights and accessories running all the time and my kids play radio and LED lights all the time. So I installed a full size car battery with stock battery and a True UTV isolator. The mount I made was simple but seems to be working. I just used a Napa legend battery I had laying around for now.
The mount on top Is steel angle and the legs are aluminum strap. And 2 bungees for tie downs. It's under drivers seat and connects as posted with 2 inch u- bolts. Easy install. Got the Idea from @joeymt33 and @allgm1
Thanks guys
I used a set of old jumper cables for power and ground and learned if you don't ground The auxiliary battery to frame nothing works right hahaha But at least it got me to check all my wires ten times.
I like the satisfaction knowing I have a backup battery and ample power on hand. Once again thanks to everyone on this sight.:)

Where did you mount the isolator
I took out the tool kit and mounted the isolator too a piece of 3/8 rubber cut to fit that hole.That hole goes down 2 inches then tapers smaller. I also used black RTV sealant on it cause I read where moisture was getting in them.

Needed a simple tray when mounting one under the seat in a P5. Ended up going with this stuff and didn't even have to weld it. Made one for the bottle jack too. FWIW.
