I'm a little surprised by the lack of input on this thread. I was hoping to see a little more input. I recently installed a residential fridge and coincidentally am due a battery replacement, so I'm looking for the most practical, cost-effective solution. I currently have one off brand (had to get what was available in a small town on a Sunday afternoon 4 years ago) Group 27 Deep Cycle. It has served us well, but with an inverter installed to run the fridge while traveling, I'm looking for something reliable, but as I said cost-effective. I am waivering between five solutions: Two 6 Volt Interstate Golf Cart batteries (2 1/2 to 3 times the cost of a single 12V), a single group 27 Deep Cycle (basically a one for one replacement of what I have now), two Group 27 Deep Cycles, a single Group 29 Deep Cycle, or a single Group 31 Deep Cycle. I'm leaning toward the 2 6V Golf Cart batteries, but I'm not sure if I really need them from a cost-effective perspective, because we don't boondock and will only need the 12V while traveling down the road (supplemented by the truck charging of course). I also am not sure we will need the bigger 12V than what we currently have. It seems the bigger 12V will hold the higher voltage needed for the inverter, if we lost shore power in a campground, and that is a consideration. What do you think? Am I over thinking this?
