Perhaps I misunderstood the term 'cabin'.
I use the term coach and chassis and assumed by cabin he meant chassis/engine, as in airplane cabin and truck cab.

I can see how cabin can mean coach, since you camp in a cabin.
Maybe I had my terms confused.

Please apply everything I said to mean the 'underhood engine starting battery'.

Please change my amortizing to fit the cost of replacing the loaner batteries in the house part of the rv.

Please see the dislike for my 6v batteries has to deal with wet cell in general no matter where they are used.

I'll look up an inexpensive AGM deep cell.
I paid $366 for the oddesy battery in the avalanche. I don't think it's a deep cell.

I think we can all agree wet cells are either to cheap out on battery cost or for very limited specialized use which calls for only wet cells and that automotive isn't one of those uses.

We all know why our Thor kits came with wet cells....
I think I can safely say not a soul in the world prefers a wet cell if same sized alternative is offered.


Op,
Get rid of those if you can afford it.
