[chbot] Deep Cycle Batteries for caravan

[Steve Groom]

Hi,

I think the best option would be LiFePO4 batteries for power weight and general efficiency?

Steve.

It would probably be a good idea to seek out advice on a forum where deep cycle are used a lot. eg. caravanners or boaties.

Hi,

Seeing the discussion regarding batteries reminded me to sort my caravan out.

I just got a caravan and need to get one or more deep cycle batteries (hooked up to solar panels).

Batteries are expected to supply several 12v lights and USB chargers plus a 300W invertor (typically supplying about 100W to mini fridge).

Any brands to stay away from or recommended?

Also open for suggestions to buy them from.
