Hi PC,

A single deep cycle battery is not much use on a RV. Will last about 36hrs without recharge depending how much the furnace is used.

At the least use two 12v deep cycle (typicaly 105amp/hr each) and should be a matched pair, both in amp/hrs, brand, and age. If a new battery is added to a old battery, the battery's will draw different amounts of current from each battery, thus the weaker battery will ruin the new battery with-in a short time.

6v Trojan T-105 (205amp/hr each) golf cart batterys make the best RV battery's, about $70eh. They have the best recharge life cycle time and lower cycle current draw of any of the deep cycle battery's. They will last about 4 days without recharge with heavy furnace use.

Now add a solar PV pannel and you never have to listen to a generator and enjoy the piece and quite.
