Thanks Ted & Melinda. The terminals are all clean, battery cables are appropriately sized, and the inverter is only a couple of feet away - I'd say less than 4 feet, maybe a 5 foot cable run.

I think I am going to start with replacing the batteries, but will also add a solar array to help with keeping them charged - probably start with 400W. I am going to star another thread about solar because I have several questions regarding how to connect and if the coach charger being on at the same time is going to cause any problems.
