You need a converter that has a boost voltage at 14.2+ volts to get a decent charge in these batteries without running the generator 12+ hours a day. For example WFCO "3 Stage" is notorious for just doing a 13.6 trickle charge.
Hi all -
I am looking to add a third battery to my TT. It has 2 12V Deka deep cycle/marine batts that are just under 1.5 years old. Will I run into any issues with adding a third 12V batt? Should I try to match specs with my current batteries? After adding, I plan to use them until they are junk and replace with Lithium ion - hopefully 3 or 4 years from now.
Thanks for your input!
