Deep cycles are available in 12 volt and my prior coach had 2 of them installed. The problem is at the higher amperages (150 and above) they can get big and expensive. I have seen some running over 600.00 per battery. It would take the generator a long time to burn 2400.00 in gas.

Right now I am leaning towards 2 more 6 volt. Although some additional research is required, I believe the 6 volt batteries have a longer life span.
