... most 12 volt batteries used for RV house service are not true deep cycle batteries but are hybrid marine/rv batteries. IE starting/deep cycle service.
Not true. Hybrid batteries are often labeled as "marine". With few exceptions, they are rarely labelled as "deep cycle", so it's easy to distinguish.
I doubt that people who have camped for a few years would keep a hybride as their "coach" battery, if they got it by mistake. Having said this - AGM hybrids by Optima have a solid reputation, and are rather expensive. Though they are small, low AH.
