[QUOTE="gnappi, post: 464236, member: 22374"] Two 6v batteries (@225Ah/2x62lb.=128lb.) shouldn't be any more than marginally better than two 12v group 29 batteries (@ 106Ah x2 =212Ah/126lb.) but if one of the 12v batteries shorts or has another issue, no problem, switch to the other, but if one of the 6v cells go kaput, it's dead in the water. For sure since the 6V batteries are smaller in footprint and more easily stowed, you found a sweet spot in battery use for your purposes. [/QUOTE]
