Who’s used the Odyssey PC680 (or two of them) and how did you have to modify your battery shelf?

I'm using 2 of these and using Van's battery boxes mounted side by side (with a little mod) aft of the baggage compartment.

I went with a pair of PC-680s.  Tray was modified to increase width a small amount (around an inch).  Contactors (one for each battery) are on a bracket that attaches to the standard contactor location.  I’ve attached one picture – if you need/want more I can send them offline if you’d like.  I’m also aware of another builder that has a pair of PC-680s but they’re rotated 90 degrees from “normal” and the contactors are one on each side.

Well, if we're sharing battery pictures, here's our main battery:  12v + 12v = 24v.
 
Also in view is a real man's contactor . . .

Ok.  I'll look this up in the archives and on Aerolectric later today, but real quick, why 24 volts other than for lighter wiring and that you may have used avionics out of a Cessna?

that's the way to go........nuke reactor in the back with a matching bit of electrictrickery in the front! No worries about rising avgas prices and a set of fuel rods is bound to last a lifetime...........you'll be radiant looking after every flight and there's no problem finding your RV in the dark!
