Long story but I had a surgeon really botch a surgery causing progressive loss of feeling in the arms and legs . I have a van now but i cant go anywhere or do anything because every 3 days i get these IVs very similar to chemo that are helping to slowi things down . My Doc came up with a solution where I can do an IV on my own now which means i can go south again. . The stuff I get is very expensive and very perishable and has to be refrigerated. I was doing ice at first but it got to be way too physically demanding . Didn't quit yet. So I got a 12 V Coleman cooler and the 2 x 200 panels kit from Renogy installed and the 2 biggest sealed deep cycle AGM batteries Walmart carried . The system worked for a week The controller died . Renogy has no customer service or support . After 9 months I finally got a human who told me I need to go on the roof of my wheelchair van and "run the following tests " before they'd consider letting me retun it. Didn't sound safe to me. It was over $150 to get a guy to look at it so I was better off putting that towards a new one. Got the Rover controller. I let the batteries charge all day, then run my Coleman 12V cooler over night . After only about 6 weeks in my batteries were struggling to hold enough to run all night . I thought 2 would do it. Doing ice, emptying a cooler is just not an option.
So I'm trying to figure out what would be an affordable and reliable way to store the energy to power a cooler. My LTD insurer has been really nasty so cost is a major consuderation. Right now Ive spent a lot, nothing works but I at least have 2 great almost new really heavy boat anchors ( theres an upside to everything)
I checked this battery out. Would 1 work? Or 2 ?

Or better off with 1 of these ?

Btw im based in Ontario Canada . Unless i can figure this out then I'll be in Florida
Any input is really appreciated.
Take care,
Paul
