group 24 & 27 batteries ?
My new trailer came with a group 24 deep cycle. I'm considering adding a 27 in parallel. Any problem combining the two?

It will work. When they fail you can upgrade to two gp 29 or six volts. The important thing is to not discharge too deeply. Get a digital volt meter installed where it's easy to see. Stay above 12 volts. Going down to 11.7 or so isn't going to instantly kill them but I just always stay above 12. When you store it disconnect the battery cable or get a battery disconnect switch. If charged properly and not discharged too deeply you may be surprised how long they last. I have one gp 27 that is doing it's 9th summer of work this year and will then sit for 7 months again in the cold with a battery tender.
If you consider 6 volters remember they are taller.
