House batteries not up to ah rating
Bought 2 new Interstate SRM-24 group 24 RV/Marine batteries a few months ago. I have used the MH 4 times on trips lasting from 3-6 days. Never going below 40 amps before recharging. The rating is 85...

Does the solar controller have an equalize setting?
Yes it does, 120 minutes at 15.2v. I have to set the date to the 28th of the month.

Do you have a generator on board your RV? Go buy a MegaWatt 30 amp power supply unit online from up in AguaDulce, before you go camping. Set it at 15.0V before you go. Run your generator for 2 hours every morning at 15.0V... your batteries might do a little bit better, but you'll go through the same******again that you are going through now when you get home, from those PIA batteries.
