6 volt batteries in the 400

mkritz

Anyone have a 2018 Tab 400 with the dual 6 volt setup?  Curious what the amp hour rating is because the dealer said they were like 106amp.  NuCamp list the setup at 224.   Pretty sure you don't add the amp hours when connecting in series....you only add the volts.   I haven't had a chance to actually check the physical batteries yet.

I am pretty sure right around 225ah. You are correct, you add volts when in series.

So anyone with the 2x 6 volt battery system has 2x 224 amp hour batteries.   My dealer said the trailer came with 2x 100+ amp hour batteries which doesn't add up.

Unless they have changed, should be around 225ah.

The dealer may be mistaken about the amp hours of each battery and simply thought everything doubled. This web site gives an explanation of serial and parallel battery wiring: https://www.atbatt.com/how-to-wire-6v-batteries-in-series-or-parallel-configuration/
