I am no expert on batteries, I just relayed what I read, and my experience with my battery bank here at the house.
My charger and the (stick) house load here would be much greater than the RV example.
I read on one of the solar 'off grid' sites about spacing the batteries apart for air circulation. I assume they knew what they were talking about, but who knows..
I am glad your batteries didn't out-gas and they didn't overheat, because I can look foreword to mine running cool and not out-gassing in my RV application.
You have much more experience with RV solar and Inverter usage than I do.
I know the engineers have designed a temperature sensor for my Maxim Inverter-charger so there must be a need for it.
I bought it and will use it with my system.
We will see how the whole thing works out.
