Now I'm confused. I thought I bought that battery for a reason.

And capacity seems to be higher than others. What am I missing?
it in my fwd stowage compartment....but I need to drop the chassis enclosure panels to see what's what underneath.
Presumably you did buy this G31 AGM battery for a reason, I was just wondering why a newbie would go to such expense when a conventional lead acid battery is so much less costly and serves the needs of most just fine. :h The size of a battery case is determined by it's BCI Group Number, not whether it's lead acid or AGM or whatever so if you have the space available on your trailer tongue for a G31 AGM then you have the space available for a G31 lead acid. If by "capacity seems to be higher than others" you mean greater than a G27 or G24 then yes of course BUT a G31 lead acid will offer as much and in many cases greater capacity than a much more expensive G31 AGM. Certainly what is true with an AGM is proper maintenance as the cost of replacing it is so much greater than a conventional lead acid battery.
