MBS house Batteries

[Skip51]

I need to replace the house batteries in my 2016 2400w. Can anyone confirm they are type 27 ? Has anyone used Universal Battery UB121000 (100 ah, AGM), if so where did you buy them (other than Amazon) and how are they holding up, did you have to modify the connectors or cabling?

I'm actually been looking at replacing my 2x12V factory batteries with 2x6V AGM's in Series. This US Battery (http://usbattery.com/wp-content/uplo..._DATA_1016.pdf) has a larger capacity and and a shorter length but is 6 pounds heavier than their group 27 12V AGM option which might be a concern for me.

However, I am watching the lithium battery market and there is a chance I could go that way. I have to figure out how those batteries would work with my house and solar charger. The weight savings would be substantial and the added capacity and ability to hold a charge really attractive but the cost is still a huge factor.
