I know they are not true deep cycle and I have no intention of going to 6 volt batteries.
Which would be your choice between the Interstate SRM-29 and the WalMart Everstart Maxx 29DC? I can get the Interstates for $119 and the Everstarts for $99. They both weigh 61 lbs. I found the specs on the Interstate and its 1 year warranty but can't find anything on the Everstarts?
I am buying two to go along with my two 100w solar panels and Phocos controller for short boondocking trips in AZ with plenty of sunshine.

If you go back to my first post, I specifically asked about two 12v batteries. This is not and will not become a debate on 6v versus 12v. Thank you to those who have helped answer my question.

Why bother asking for dry camping battery advice when your mind is already closed to the experiences of veterans who know what would work best for you? :h :S

I checked Costco and the largest they had was a Group 27 Interstate.
6V batteries are not an option, don't have room on the tongue for 4 and I'm not going to rely on only 2. I will check the Trojan dealer to see what they have in 12v.
I will say the two Group 24 batteries I now have are going on 6 years old and still working fine. The first thing I did when I bought the toyhauler was ditch the old power converter and install a Progressive Dynamics system with the charge wizard. I learned that with my old 5th wheel after going through several batteries in a couple years.
