The main consideration is "will it fit in my RV's battery space?" In multiple battery installations all batteries should be the same model and age, especially with paralleled 12V batteries, so that their charge-discharge characteristics are as nearly alike as possible. Otherwise the stronger battery will tend to discharge, trying to charge the weaker. When the batteries are well matched, any slight difference is mostly balanced by the stronger battery charging the weaker until they are both at the same charge level. If the batteries are seriesed 6V to get 12V, matching is not as important but still should be matched for best performance. Al
