You have realize the mfr only provides the minimum to get by.



Do you plan to do any dry camping, without electrical hookup? If so, buy two RV deep cycle. You really don't want to run these batteries down below 50% capacity. It shortens their life each time. There is LOTS of info online but let me suggest a start:
