Adding two 6v to two 12v?
Hi All, We just moved from a 5th wheel toy hauler to a new class A motorhome. I'm not sure if I should do another set of 12's or add 6's in series. In an ideal world I would swap out all to 6v's bu...

Thanks for the support BD.
By the way there is a slight difference between most 12 volt (MARINE/deep cycle) and most 6V (Golf Car/DEEP CYCLE) batteries. the way I type it suggests.
MARINE/deep cycle you can safely use about 25% of the capacity. run 'em down to say 25% SOC and the odds of recovery are... SLim (not none but clearly slim)
DEEP CYCLE you can safely use 50%. Run 'em down to 25% SOC and odds are good they Will Recover (not 100% but way better than the MARINE type).
By the way I run both types in parallel here one pair of GC-2's (DEKA G-20s) and 3 Group 27 MARINE/deep cycle so I know what I'm typing about.
