Hi Team,

Been weighing which batteries to install in our R23D. I did the Lithium upgrade on our AirStream. However, wondering if it is the correct path for our R23D.

I am leaning toward Lead Carbon Batterries from a reputable company like Victron or Canadian Battery.
My thoughtts:
1) victron says they are good for 500+ dischsrges.
2) Can Bat says thiers are good for 2000 cycles to 20% SOC.
3) They will directly connect to our 150 Amp alternator. No need for DC/DC charger. This allows them to take full advantage of the 150 amp alternator.
4) They cost about the same as AGMs

I am interested in you all's thoughts .

Thanks
Dan
