. . . You will want the performance of 12v AGMs vs GC2s for high amp draws using an inverter with only two batteries.
Deep cycle AGMs come in various sizes, but 27 is one. Can you get two in there? . . .
Two GC2's and the Flow-Rite (with pump) will probably set me back about $300. Can probably get a pair of Duracell Group 27 AGM's for about $380 OTD. Or, two 31's for about $425 OTD. Granted, they're not the best AGM's, but you have to draw the line on cost somewhere.
Done little more than add water (and nothing else) every month or so with past GC2's and have always had good luck. Hopefully the Flow-Rite will allow me to do that easily. Not sure I want to pay $80 more and also give up total Ah's with the 27 AGM's (if I can't fit the 31's).
Appreciate all your suggestions. Got a few weeks to decide. We'll see . . .
