I think offsetting with 45° elbows would be better than with 90° elbows. That would prevent any possibility of the vent becoming blocked due to water collecting in it and the RV being unlevel; though it would have to be pretty far out of kilter for that to actually happen, I reckon.
(For what it's worth, Amp-hours are not, strictly speaking, a measure of energy but merely battery capacity. Amp-hours at some given or assumed voltage do measure of energy, and are in fact trivially convertible into Watt-hours by multiplying by the voltage; but without the voltage, you can't say anything. Of course, for RV DC electrical systems, it's a safe bet that the voltage is nominally 12V and actually a skosh higher.)
