In the days of only 1 battery we could do 3 days if we bought a new battery every 2 years, but these two have worked really well for us.

I agree. With the standard battery set-up, 3 days seems to be the limit. I suppose the manufacturers figure that average campers will only dry camp for a weekend and thus provide the bare minimum. Anything over the average would require other measures, such as battery upgrades or a generator.
