I'd highly recommend this mod for anyone who can get their hands on a decent deep cycle battery.

I'll second that recommendation. The drag from the alternator is big and you can feel it in the throttle response and "in the seat of your pants". I think it's one of the simplest mods to try and gives one of the biggest bang for your buck, even if you just stick to 12V. "Just add deep cycle and watch your mileage grow."
I've gone over one year with the alternator removed from my vehicle and can't imagine going back.
Go Daox!
p.s. 12.6 is a normal resting voltage for a fully charged battery. The healthy range is 12.6 - 12.7 and sometimes a little higher if it's new.
