Technology in batteries seem to be on decline.
When for last couple of decades I was buying 100 months warranty batteries, the best I can find with new technology is 48 months.
AGM batteries theoretically should last longer, practically they live 1/2 of flooded life.
Golf cart batteries are still best bang for the buck.
Just get good charger who will not boil them. With my inverter/charger in 10 years I was using batteries actively I added water twice.
