?? 6 or 12 VOLT BATTERY ??
Should I go with 6 volt or 12 volt batteries? Either way I will be converting battery power to AC power via an inverter. Which voltage is better?

Any flaws in my logic?
Your take on the 6V's leaving you without power vs. 12V's sounds logical but how many 6V failures are there?
I asked this once and did get a response from someone that had a 6V fail and he was in a bad spot to replace it. The failure may have been due to the type of off-road conditions of his trip and how that influenced the failure. We didn't get too far into it as there was a bit of pain for him about the long journey to get a replacement 12V battery.
Most of the name brand 6V batteries are noted for their durability. I have two banks, one of 6V's and one with 12V's so don't worry about a battery failure ruining a trip.
