How much is enough battery?
I just picked up my new 23RB Passport. It came with one Group 24 battery. I know exactly nothing about these batteries. Or any batteries.
I don't dry camp, other than the occasional stopover at Wally World, or maybe a rest stop. I usually have electric available. But, I might like to be able to dry camp if I decided to.
Should I look into a 6v setup? If I go to 6v batteries, will it impact my current 12v setup inside? Will I need a different converter? Will I need to hook up anything extra?
I think I know that if I go with a second 12v battery, it will hook up in parallel with my current battery and if I go with 2 6v batteries, the need to be hooked up in series. Other than that, I'm clueless.
Also, whatever setup I decide on, I would like a monitor on the system. On my class C, I had a Tri-Metric monitor that monitored the house batteries as well as the chassis battery. Do I need something that sophisticated or will a simple voltage monitor work?
Sorry... lots of questions, no answers.
