" I just have two group 27 batteries (all I can fit in the battery compartment of my truck camper),"
Just a note: I found I can get two more batteries each side of the truck bed up front between the wheel well cover and the front of the bed each side, and still slide in the camper, to add to the two I can get in the camper itself.
This gives me a potential of six batteries to haul around when using the TC.
Note: I cut a hole in the left side by the corner of the camper down low, and put in a "cable hatch" to pass the wires paralleling the "outside" batteries to the "inside" batteries.
I do the connections when the camper is part way slid in, and then finish sliding it in. Works great! :)
