We have 440 AH of 6V golf cart batteries in our RV.  Don't know
what they weigh ... don't care. (:-)

Pretty normal for a solar powered RV.  We have no other power 
source.  They power the K3, lights, vent fans, furnace blower, etc. 
and deliver 120 VAC @ 1500 W via a Trace inverter if needed.  
The inverter wants 90A from the batteries when delivering 1000 W.

There's also a 12V DC @ 25A from a windmill when we're parked 
where there's wind.
