Some background info, tplife is a tent camper with a single AGM battery which is used to operate some lights and music. He is convinced that AGM is the only battery worth having and regularly debates the topic on this and another forum I frequent.
His opinion is certainly valid as to what works best for him and makes him happy. I agree that for his use an AGM is best. His battery isn't mounted, is handled frequently and cannot spill.
However you will never convince him that AGM technology is not best for every person and in every situation. He seems to have blinders on, quotes erroneous experts, and is absolutely convinced of his opinion.
What always pushes my buttons is stating things in "absolutes". I know I'm guilty of it, too, but hope I have enough smarts to be corrected and accept it.
Since I have both AGM's and FLA's at work, I guess I'm only half stupid.:B
