Do you realize that not all RVs operate on 12 Volt systems?

Another example of why energy content of batteries should be measured and expressed in units of measure that actually represent energy.

When Tesla says a car has 85 kWh of battery capacity, I don't need to know what its voltage or Amp-hour capacity is. It's simpler that way in my opinion.

When Trojan rates a deep-cycle battery at 1.5 kWh, that says a lot about its size to me if comparing to other batteries.
