The reason I bought 6 volt batteries is because each plate is much thicker than the 12 volt batteries.
Which is why their internal resistance is significantly higher than those in 12 volt jugs, which in turn results in greater voltage drop under heavy load from an inverter. 12 volt AGMs in particular offer significantly lower internal resistance and for those running an inverter can be the "best" choice. ;)
I never read anywhere about this voltage drop... How much are we talking about? I run an 1100 watt inverter. I have 3 24 group batts @ 75 ah..
I run 800 watt toater oven and coffee maker.
I ran #2 wire 5 feet maybe..
How much worse will the voltage drop be with 6 volts?
I been meaning to go 6 volt but now this threw a wrench in the works...
