Batteries & Charging

[capedory30]

Opinions on Lifeline AGM batteries? Thier claim is they are the "next generation battery". Do the batteries really live up to that?

They are regarded as the best of the "no-maintenance" type batteries. Top of the line lead-acid batteries will give you more charge/discharge cycles but only if you maintain them. With my woefully bad reputation for maintenance, I opt for the no maintenance type.
