Purchasing house batteries this week and have settled on either:
2x Lifeline AGM 6V GPL-4CT 220Ah (120 lbs total) or
A single Lifeline AGM 12V GPL 8DL 255Ah (156 lbs total)
Anything I need to know about mounting these batteries in a van? I plan to strap them to the floor with marine brackets (bolted through the floor to a reinforced support bar) and use heavy duty nylon tie down ratchet straps.
Do they need to be mounted in a battery box? Any reason to choose one setup over the other besides the weight savings of the 6V?
