By the way, to give your GMC a heart lung transplant is not simply a matter of swapping battery technology. You have to address how to properly charge two different battery technologies that need very different charging parameters. And, you need to do so from all four ways you have of charging batteries - alternator, shore power, generator and (optionally) solar. Plus, you need to find a way to keep your stock alternator alive as it was never intended to run at maximum power output continuously for an hour or two! But, all this can be done.
Not every owner will want to or be able to it, but for those of you who want to transform living in your GMC for your family it may well become the best thing you ever did. Stay tuned......

Jerry,
Thanks for taking time and effort to work this issue. There's a mountain of info to sort through. I have two independent house battery banks. One is only charged by generator/shore power. Current batteries are from Mens Mall. It would be nice to upgrade to Lithium based batteries and add solar.
