I would say an important issue is to select your 12 volt source based on your need. Living area batteries should be designed for long low continuous drain, especially uding inverters. The bigger the inverter the more robust the deep cycle capacity and the stronger you charging capability. The stronger the battery the stronger the power supply. Bigger cables too. But if you don't need all that much having it is a wastte but also will not work well for you. Too dmall a charger the battery may nevrr charge w ell. Too large a charger the battery could be damaged. Also, design your circuit for energy conservation. If you do not need a drain, be able to turn it off. Also connect it all where others can operate it, why make things so complicated only you can figure it out. Uuse proper cables and connections, rig it today and it will screw up tomorrow. Have a way to shut off all power fast, electrically ignited fires can happen. Also storage without a current drain will always keep your batteries ready to go. Other things but this is a good start,

I thought I would start a new thread on this, but batteries obviously is an interesting topic. I understand the deep cycle vs cranking battery logic (maybe not) but for someone who uses inverters regularly on the house bank, isn't that type of use approaching what a cranking battery is designed for?
