Now Benton I really like your idea and I will get my Bro to help me hook
this up so I get the batteries in the proper alinement, he is a wiz at such
stuff. Do you or any of the others in the group go to the chat room?

oh....a 6 volt golf cart is a deep cell battery, just different voltage.

The lower the voltage the more power the battery holds and the better it
takes a drain....I am really not sure why one would not use this setup
in
a
boat, if he was already using multiple batteries...You do have to have
two
or more batteries to use the golf cart 6 volt. Your fishing friends
might
want to check into this, it would benefit them greatly.

Benton, I like your idea of the two 6's, perhaps when I need to
replace
my
current deep-cell I will give this a try. What I don't understand
fully
is
why the two work better? I do a lot of fishing with guys with big
rigs
[for
on the water that is] and I have never heard of them using anything
but
deep-cells. Now they are not running household items on these
batteries -
just wondering -=dr=-

1. Yes they all have fans
2. If you are going to add a second battery I would recommend
replacing
your
current one and installing two 6 volt golf cart batteries. You will
have
to
cross connect the terminals to establish 12 volt's but you will get
power
equal to three normal deep cycle batteries and the six volt take
drainage
allot better...You can get these batteries for around $50.00 a
peace....this
is the only way to go.
3. There is a minimal amount of gas put off by the batteries, you
will
need
to put a small two inch louver vent in the closet...they also make
battery
boxes with a vent tube installed in them.
If these directions were not very clear, let me know and I will try
to
be
clearer

I bought a 400 watt12 to 120 volt inverter today and put it in my
rig.
I
looked
like a pretty good one but it has a fan in it that makes an
anoying
noise.
Do they all make noise? Do they all have fans?
I need to install a second rv battery in my rig.
If I install it in the closet of my rig will it put off acid gases
while
charging?
