[C38] Group 31 battery size

Peregrine has two group 24 6 volt batteries in the battery compartment for the house bank   One 12 volt in the cockpit locker for the engine with a battery switch. And a 33 amp emergency battery forward of the fuel tank which is for emergency lights and instruments it feeds a separate panel.    All three banks are hooked up to the charger and a gizmo  the name escapes me that regulates the charge to all banks evenly. Also replaced all lighting with LEDs and at night with full instruments and the mast head light only draw 2.5 amps.

> Daniel,   I have 3 group 31 batts installed under the long section of the dinette. 1 group 31 nd the starting battery under the seat in the normal position. This arrangment has worked well for me. I also have 180 watts of solar and a Air-Breeze wind generator. Even up  here on Lake Superior, I have been "out" for 4 weeks and still make ice every day with frozen meat in the freezer.

Since I'm going to transition to AGMs, I'm thinking I shouldn't really need a storage box, just straps. Currently have a pair of group 27 deep cycle there that have only about an inch of clearance. Would like to get the flooded lead acid batteries out of the cabin.  Second "bank" is a single starting battery in the port lazerette.   Figure I'll do the full rewire in a couple years.  Would welcome any thoughts.  Thanks, Dan
