Hi

The advantage would be longer lasting 12V system when not connected to shore power. The only disadvantage would be the loss of room in the battery storage location.

I have considered it but on doing some checking on amp-hour ratings I find that 2 6V golf cart batteries in series would be as good as or better than 2 12V batteries in parallel and would take very little more space than the present 12V battery.
