Sounds like a reasonable approach based on how you use your unit. I commend you on your choice of a practical solution..
I just replaced my chassis start batteries (2) for a dead cell in one of them. Knew I had a problem when I kept getting a low voltage warning after retracting slides then trying to start in very cold weather. A load test confirmed the problem battery. Regardless, I babied it along for 6 months and a winter in the southwest and didn't have any critical issues. We're now in Alaska for 4 months so it was time to replace them both.
