For heavier draws, 4 or 6 batteries are much better.
Isn't that self evident? :R The fact remains that whether one uses six 6 volt GC-2s wired in series / parallel or three 12 volt G31s wired in parallel voltage drop under heavy inverter load will be less with the 12 volts than with the 6 volts. The second fact is that by using GC-2s which were specifically designed for golf cart use one is adapting batteries to RV use ... adapting, not using a battery specifically designed for the task at hand. ;)
