Residential Fridge Batteries - How many??
Just purchased a new 2017 MH with a residential fridge. Fridge is running off 1800 watt inverter and two six volt batteries. Will two batteries suffice or should I add a couple more?

I've had two, four, six in wet cell, 4 in AGM
And right now five AGMs
Two are good for traveling and short stops and can make it overnight if you are not power users, but it is hard on the batteries and they need to be fully charged very day of dry camping
Four is much better
In a 12 Hr period, 8pm to 8am , we use between 70 ampHrs too 120ampHrs
That's fridge TV PC DVD charge phones and use fans for cooling
That's 30~50 percent if using only two six volt batteries
Your use can vary and will be different
