Battery recommendation
Hi, what are the latest recommendations for a good deep cycle battery for my trailer? I want wet flooded; not AGM. In a Group 24 size. I'll need two. My local RV shop recommends Interstate at $116 ...

I disagree and want true deep-cycle technology.
Depends what your intended use is - my own Interstate G27 is now 10 yrs old, still going strong, and does what I ask of it. However, if you intend to dry camp on a regular basis about your best bet in a flooded deep cycle battery is a pair of 6 volt GG-2s of pretty well any brand. That said, friends of ours run a pair of Interstate G24s in parallel and for their intended purpose these batteries serve the purpose just fine.
