To get the weight of the batteries off the tail, I moved them forward of the tail (and rectifier) under the bed over the axles. It's an Optima (the Yellow topped one) and for the life of me can't recall the specs on it. It may be a 28 amp hour battery, but don't hold me to that. I can look it up if need be. We probably won't do a lot of boom docking for the foreseeable future, so cost was more a factor. I purchased this one at Advance Auto because it had been on the shelf unsold for over a year and they gave me a great deal-- $75, normally retails for about $200 there. I can live with that.
