Because I have an inverter/charger, the batteries gassed more when charging, losing water.
I killed the batteries due to poor maintenance.
I guess there are different quality inverter/chargers.
On bus mentioned above - I had Xantrex (?) inverter/charger rated at 2600W.
That thing had like 3-stage charging and in 12 years the house batteries lasted, I recall adding water 2, maybe 3 times.
I would not call it neglect, but I had yard storage at the time and after pulling clamps from batteries - they would wait off-season 8-10 months till next charging.
But then you drive Ford right?
My Fords over the years always had charging at 14.5V or above and that was killing batteries prematurely all the time.
