FORGET About "RV-Marine Batteries". That term is the biggest bit of misleading BS I have ever heard. SCAM talk.
They are NOT in any way shape or form a Deep Cycle battery.
Best advice in thie thread is going with 2 6V and reading the Battery FAQ that another memeber put up.
2 Trojan T-105 Will give you at least 420 Amp Hours.
Plenty of power for pretty much any RV and if you add a 120 or larger solar set up..you really wont have to worry aobut losing power..depending up on load of course. Its what I have run for the past number of years although this year I added an 80 to my origianl 80 watt panel...now I find in bright Sun the solar charges at a higher amp rating than plugged into shore power.
Take your time before you buy..read the FAQ..worth it...at least I thought so 8 years ago when i saw it posted here.
