AMSolar did my install, no way would I have attempted it myself.
I upgraded to 2 agm 6v's after my 1st week of below freezing temps that was my intro into my very 1st week of rv'ing. My old 12v couldn't make it thru a single night & that scared me. Is the math just as simple of the production/storage? If you can run your 1260w w/4 agm's is it likely I can start w/600w w/my 2 agm 6v's??? Thx!
