battery for inverter
I have a 2000 Holiday Rambler with a medium sized home refrigerator in it. In the past I have simply run the generator for a short time every few hours to cool it off until we arrived at our destination. We do not boondock. We are going to take a 2 week trip in a couple of months and I decided I would install a 1500 watt pure sine wave inverter and run an extension cord to run the fridge, the 2 6volt batteries would be charged while driving. They are apparently not enough to start the fridge though, so I am going to add another battery. Should I get a 12v deep cycle for the few hours we will not be in the rv at a time, or a starting battery to give it the necessary watts to start the fridge running?
