RVing in the boondocks is a lot easier when your RV batteries are in good shape. Whether you have 12-volt, 6-volt golf cart batteries, or AGMs, here's how to replace your RV house batteries when the time comes.

Our motorhome came with 4 6-volt house batteries, wired in series parallel to equal 2 large 12-volr batteries. They power our onboard lights, water pump, vent fans and other 12-volt equipment, plus our 110-volt household appliances though an inverter, which converts 12-volt DC power into 110-volt AC current.

Regular care and maintenance kept our original batteries in good shape for 6 years. When the time came to replace them, we chose to splurge on a set of Lifeline AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries These are the same size 6-volt batteries, wired in series-parallel, just like our old flooded lead-acid deep cycle batteries. But they're completely sealed, accept a charge faster and perform better in every way. They're just pretty expensive!
