Starting batteries instead of deep cycle
So I’ve got a theory... Deep cycle batteries are designed to slowly discharge low current for a long time. Starting batteries are designed to put out high current for short periods. Generally, p...

For that application Marine batteries may be ok.
The best may be an AGM chemistry.
2000 watts = a draw of 200 amps @ 12 volts. So 8 12 volt or 16 6 volt would be ideal. (that limits demand to 25 amps per cell).
The problem with using starter batteries is that they may sulphate quickly and they want to be recharged *RIGHT NOW*. Of course, it can be done.
