    Default Need new batteries... Preferences please


    Ok Everyone, I'm in need of new batteries for the boat... The Deka batteries have been good to me, but I can't find them around here.. They lasted 5 years.. Currently running a 24 volt 80lb trolling motor, with 2 27deep cycle, a 24 deka dual purpose dedicated to electronics and a 24 dp for the crank battery...
    I'm upgrading the trolling batteries to 31 group size and the electronics to a 27 group.. I'll leave the dedicated crank at a 24... I also just got my new charger in yesterday, minnkota 4 bank 460 that I'll be hooking up to all.
    What's everyone's battery preference ?
    I'm staying away from lithium at the moment.. too expensive.. . I wanted to get the 31 agm from sam's ($179) but they are out and no idea when they will get any...

    I've got 2 31s and 2 27 AGMs from Sam's. Like them a lot and have given me Zero problems. Keep checking back with them, they get trucks in every day.

    The Duracell’s from battery plus are serving me well. They are $139 plus you get 10% off ordering online and they currently have a $10 rebate.

    The Duracell AGM batteries have been a good value for the buck for the last few years as reported by many on different web sites.

    They also have Duracell wet cell batteries.

    Sams has Duracell batts on sale 2vtime a year, usually spring and fall and usually a heads up is given by someone when the sales hit.

    If Sams is out I would shop around

    Currently I have 10 of the AGM batts in service, 2 boats and back up sump pumps.

    Yes, I am a fan of their AGM batts for the buck and buy on sale.
