Ron,
Did your PC come stock with that being the battery compartment as shown in your photo, or was the stock battery compartment located under the step - like it is in our Itasca?
Why did you go with 6V golf cart size AGM batteries instead of 12V AGM deep cycle batteries?
I have to use 12V AGM batteries because 6V golf cart size batteries will not fit in our stock battery storage area under the step and I did not want to give up a regular storage compartment just to use golf cart size batteries. Our 12V AGM batteries are deep cycle ones - just like 6V golf cart batteries are deep cycle batteries. Some folks think you have to switch to golf cart batteries to get deep cycle construction ... but that's not true when you enter the AGM world. The capacity of our two 12V AGM deep cycle batteries in paralllel with each other is 230 amp hours.
P.S. I'm really curious as to why your 2014 discussionn suddenly appeared as a 2017 topic even though all posts were back in 2014 (except for my recent post above questioning the dates, which seems to have resurrected it)? What On Earth is up with this forum software?
(Your discussions are always good ones, anyway!!)
