- Buzzcut1Nomad III have enough crud to check and recheck at work and at play, Batteries do not need to be on that list. I went with AGMs 4 years ago, no drop off in change and never need watering.

looking to upgrade my battery bank. anyone have any preference to certain brands ?
There are a lot of factors that go into battery selection… the type of use, type of charger, required capacity, budget, installation location and orientation, etc, etc…
If you let us know more about your specific needs you will get much more informative responses.
As for brand preferences… I think Trojan makes excellent flooded lead acid (FLA) batteries that are well suited for RV use…. but there are plenty of other brands/types that may be more (or less) suited to your situation. I am also partial to Odyssey batteries and I have a bunch of 'em in my truck & camper, but they're not the right choice for everybody.
Cheers,
-Mark - ISBRAMExplorerI just installed a new pair of Deka 6 volt golf cart AGM’s, I’ve had really good service from Deka made by East Penn in the past. I was able to get them from the local distributor for under $200 each. I went AGM this time because I don’t want to have take them out to water them anymore.
- RaftenExplorerI retired my Trojan Group 31 at eight years of age. I moved it to my fishing boat and still going strong.
- kerry4951ExplorerI switched over to Deka Group 31 AGMs about 4 years ago and love them. No maintenance required.
