House Battery Replacement

What are some suggested replacements for a 12 volt (wet) Harris house battery for a Class C Thor Motorhome? Mine has one dinette/closet slide out.


Is a 105 amp hour replacement house battery sufficient if doing very little dry camping?

Take a look at your choices from Interstate Batteries. They always seem to get a lot of high marks!
What size batteries does your rig take?

I replaced my Harris batteries at 6 months with a pair of Interstate 6V batteries. Went from 160 amp hours (nameplate, they never performed very well) to 225 amp hours. I’m now looking at adding another pair. Haven’t had any problems with the Interstates, other than getting one that had a cracked shell replaced by Interstate under warranty after the first month.
