Hello Fellow Toyota RVers,
I went to buy an auxillary battery and found several sizes. I do
not
know what size mine has (as it is stored and I wasn't in the
neighborhood at the time) but these are the 4 sizes I found at
Sears:
24ms 400cca 480mca $40
24m 500cca 650mca $67
27m 575cca 750mca $77
29m 725cca 925mca $92
I am unsure of what size to get.....
If I get the biggest battery, will it cause any problems??
Thanks in advance for the help,
Owen

The bigger the better. Some on our list have installed two
6 volt golf cart batts in series ($50 each at Sams). This
route is far and away the best, if you can find room to put
them. I will be putting them in my rig this summer.
The new Marine batt specs are for both cranking and running
and IMO the batts are now, not a true deep cycle, but a
compromise. They will run down faster in RV use. A batt
made specifically for electric outboards would be fine if
there is such a thing anymore, but I think the marine batt
mfgs have all gone to this one design fits all concept.
You may have to dig a bit to find a real deep cycle batt.
BTW golf cart batts are true deep cycle.
