Why does your friend not want to go with 2 6-volts?
I told him not to. Four 6v would be fine, but I think 2 would be a bad idea. I've had two of my 6v batteries die on me over the years. The first time when I only had the two 6v I had to panhandle from camp to camp to leech a loaner. Years later when I had four 6v and one died, I still had two good ones to get me through the trip.
My 6V have lasted many many years without issues.
But if he's going to abuse them then perhaps he's not so bright - have him buy the cheapest possible batteries.
Panhandle batteries? That's a new one - I'd replace with new.
