You might want to find a 12v flooded golf cart battery rather than a marine deep cycle battery. Marine batteries are a compromise between a deep cycle and a starting battery because they need to perform both functions, so they aren’t generally able to handle as many deep cycles as a golf cart battery will. I think Trojan makes a line of 12V golf cart batteries, among other brands. ]]> Wed, 30 Sep 2020 10:50:41 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14072&PID=136770#136770 Battery replacemnet help : +1The batteries needed for an... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14072&PID=136767#136767 Author: GlueGuy

The batteries needed for an RV should be deep cycle batteries, and the comparisons will be in 20 (or 24) hour amp-hour ratings.

Cold Cranking amps is not the figure to look at. That is a measure of how fast a battery can put out power. What is needed is a 20 hour rating. That is a better measure of how much power a battery can store and release. Here is a link to batteries she could consider:

I need help for a friend that has a tab320. she has a single 12v battery that needs to be replaced. since I have 2 GC-6volts, I'm not current on which is the best 12v battery . She does about 1/2-1/2 powered campgrounds and boondocking for a couple of nights. she has a 30 amp service, a Renogy 100 watt suitcase and is not a power hog and currently has an Interstate 550 cranking amp battery that is dying.

thanks for your help

Vann
