    The operative word here bing properly vented battery boxes sealed from the inside of the trailer.  The TaB400 battery compartment is also vented to the outside for AGM batteries.  AGMs don’t normally vent, but in some low discharge/recharge situations they can and do vent out toxic gas fumes.
     Cheers

    Yes, I figured someone would suggest this and is acceptable, but I wanted the point brought out specifically as it is critical for safety.

    I bought 4 RV batteries for Boondocking from Battle Born for a solar project, these batteries are amazing and will work well with any acid. And last 3000 cycles or more. I run 400 to 800 watts all night with no problems. The battery charges very quickly even when it's cloudy. Additionally, it can supply between 14.4 and 14.6 volts, which is enough power to run most RV devices. I can totally use this battery as a backup power source because it is so versatile and reliable.
    This boondocking battery lasts longer than other brands, is leak-proof, spill-proof and best of all - maintenance-free. What's more, it has a 10-year warranty so you can return it if it's not what you expected. If you want a long-lasting battery for your RV, fishing boat or camper, this battery will provide you with a good source of power indefinitely.
