Your converter size is also determined by your battery size, Two G-27's are around 200 amp hours tops, that means a 60 am converter (But you are likely ok at 75) had you gone with a pair of TRUE DEEP CYCLE six volt in series (230 amp hours) your converter size would be 70 amps. on a motor home with Trick-L-Start or a Bi-Directional Isolator, 80 amps is OK, and 75 just about IDEAL and you get 15% more power stored for less money and more usable as well than with your Marine/Deep cycle batteries.
CONVERTER size is determined by the RV 12 volt appliances and what the total load (amps) of those appliances. NOT how many batteries or what size they are. Doug
