I have had dual batt in nearly all the configurations noted. Our 5th had dual wet deep cycle with an isolator switch and set at both they never charged well. With an old and new batt as a set one was always dying early. Put a matched set in and got 6 years from them.
I now placed a matched set without an isolator in our 24F and running great a year later. Should see many more years.
NOTE: If your 23H batt bay is like mine and I think it is, place the front batt with negative post forward. It will rest just under the front metal frame. Placed this way will avoid possible shorting to the frame. The positive forward will be risky to accidental shorting when servicing them.

I recommend dual batts, especially if boondocking.
