So, after spending a bit of time learning about Batteries, and their RV specific applications.....
http://www.rvforum.net/miscfiles/Choosing_right_battery.pdf and http://www.vonwentzel.net/Battery/00.Glossary/
among others,......
I'm a bit torn as to which way to go. I like the idea of a longer lasting battery with less maintenance, so I'm leaning towards the AGM type. However, I'm replacing conventional deep cycle 6v batteries in a 21year old Coach, which was obviously designed (charging system) for conventional batteries....
As a Facility Maintenance Engineer, I am a big time proponent of the "it works, don't fix it" philosophy. Hence, my dilemma.
I guess the question is, Has anybody with an older class A replaced the coach batteries with AGM type, and wished they didn't? If so, why?
Thanks in advance......man, I sure have alot to learn about my RV, and appreciate the collective knowledge that this forum makes available!
