We replaced the 4 House Batteries on our 2019 R-31 yesterday. The 4 “el cheapo” batteries made in China that came with the boat were replaced with Lifeline 31XT batteries.

The ABYC certified marine electrician noticed the following about the wiring: “ * Replace house batteries. Found inverter / charger and house load feeder cables were not connected to a common point on batteries. The four batteries were not sharing load equally. Repositioned common DC negative and positive cables to help even out battery performance.”
 
Who did you hire to do the work?
 
This is very helpful as I am at the bottom of the curve with multiple device installations. Will be sitting /crawling and staring down on Rascals tomorrow!
Cheers
Randy
