Application
Specifically designed for the Hotchkiss M201 with 24V electrical system. The M201 used two 12V batteries of 45Ah connected in series to deliver the required 24V voltage, in accordance with NATO specifications from the 1950s-'60s.
Installation notes
Secure the bracket firmly to the chassis according to the original mounting points. Ensure both batteries are properly secured and cannot shift during driving. Pay attention to correct polarity when connecting the two 12V batteries in series.
Compatibility
This bracket is specific to the 24V version of the M201. Not suitable for 6V or 12V systems. Early M201s (1955) had a 6V system; later productions switched to 24V in accordance with NATO standards.
Historical context
The Hotchkiss M201 was built from 1955 to 1967 as a French licence-built version of the Willys MB. The 24V electrical system was one of the main modifications compared to the original 6V MB system, introduced to comply with NATO standardisation.
