Batteries: Marine/RV or Marine?

OK folks, getting time to get another battery to replace my nearly four year old Interstate group 24. Got it at Sams and it has been a good one. But Sams does not sell Interstate any more. But they do sell Energizer which is distributed by Johnson Control. But it is time for a new one to be safe.

Should I get a Marine/RV or a Marine battery? I know we need a good battery for trailer brakes, slides, furnace, lights and other goodies.

Not sure I know the difference between Marine/RV, Marine Battery or Deep cycle. Been reading up on batteries, but it has become confusing to this old Boomer! Thanks in advance

That battery may last another two or three years, if it is still holding a charge now. I would not replace till it goes bad. When I did replace I would get a deep cycle only battery. Maybe the agm type. Those marine/rv batteries only have about 75 amp hours usually and you could get a deep cycle only battery that will have up to 110 amp hours. JMHO
