It is time to replace my house battery (29). I have been told that it may be a good idea to go with two 6 volt golf cart bats. Thus providing more amp hours?
I currently have two 29's, one for house, the other for starting. The largest demand is in the summer for the house with the refer on. Fall and winter and spring we use the Espar furnace. We are on a large lake and when the wind blows, we sail. No wind, we motor or just sit. The refer runs on A/C at the dock and DC when out sailing. The Espar is not on when we are not on the boat.
I would like to have more (longer) power supply for the house. I tried the search tool but couldn't seem to get a focus on the dual 6 volt bats.
Adding a dedicated starting battery is not an option do to available space. So that leaves me with the factory battery storage area.
Any input would be appreciated. I am not real swift on the electrical thing. Have any 35-3 owners out there been there, done that?
Thanks
