Don't also forget that performance is diminished when cold.

Re: 27 series 6V agm's ! perfect for traverse vans **Update*

Batteries have settled in very nicely and sit at about 13.4 when van is turned off.
Turned on my fridge, furnace ,lights and plugged stuff into all mu=y usb ports and the voltage dropped to 13.1 and stayed. Fridge seemed to cool down quicker as well.
However the extra weight from going from one tiny 24 series agm to two 66 lbs 27 series agm's has added to my drooping backend. So I laid off the french fries..
And now I'm getting add a leaf to return it to proper height plus a 2 inch block and some Variable rate E350(moog CC880S) springs up front to pick up the front end a bit .
I told my wife its because of the North shore Bike rack she had me Get since SHE has taken up and mountain biking and now rides with me and we needed a "good rack" her words
Its all in the master plan

Re: 27 series 6V agm's ! perfect for traverse vans

I just added a leaf to our EB build, as it was sitting more on the factory overloads than I wanted. Ended up using a SuperLift 2570 A-A-L that got me over 3 inches in the rear and improved the ride quality. More lift than I was expecting, but I can always remove the factory overloads to drop her back down a smidge.

Just Sunday added the CC880S and brought the front up just a bit over an inch. Improved the ride again, waiting to get an alignment, after things settle down a bit. All in all I met my goals, improve the ride after all the weight added by my build, and give me a bit more clearance for 265/75's.
