I have 4, 6V house batteries. I may need to replace them in the near future. What's good? Gel Cells? AGM's or ?? What about amp hour rating? Thanks

I really like the Costco batteries (Kirkland Signature). Get their golf cart ones (the 6v ones)
4 whopping cylinders on Toyota RV's. Talk about great getting good MPG. Also I have a very light foot on the pedal. I followed some MPG advice on Livingpress.com and I now get 22 MPG! Not bad for a home on wheels.

Call Battery Systems (There's one in Modesto: (209) 577-4022). They seem to be little known but have what you need. I bought 4ea. T-145 Trojans for less than the current version of Interstates U2200

Costco and Sam's Club are both good resources for batteries.

If you can locate the Interstate Battery Distributor in your area, call them and ask about returned or blemished batteries. You can save up to half the retail price.

Best deal Costco or Sam's Club for 6 volt golf carts batteries. Good for 10 years if you maintain them.

I like Sams Club 6volts, but that's me.
