[C320-list] battery replacement

[amshd2 at aol.com]

Chris 

 I am also looking at replacing my Batteries. I have been researching where to buy and who carries what brands in the PA/  MD / VA AOR.  I found the best place to buy was Battery Warehouse.    On Sat I went to the Battery Warehouse Store in Annapolis MD I checked out what they had.   http://www.batterywarehouse.net/    They keep a large stock of Marine Wet and AGM Batteries.  Their wet battery are made and sold under their own label.  The AGM are made by Decca and Life Line.

These are Marine  Deep cycle 27 Group and 4Ds.

I did not spend a lot of time on the  wet cell because I have decided to go with AGMs. But they carried a full line line of Wet Cells .   

Wet Cell 4d were about $180

AGM Decca 4D 190 AMP Hrs $370 2 Yr Warranty  (Same brand as West Marine @599) 

AGMs Life Line 4 Ds $538 210 AMP Hrs  5 Yr Warranty

AGM 27 Grp  Decca $200

AGM 27 Grp Lifeline $287

AGM 27 Gp Optima $179 

Hope this helps

You will find them listed under the heavy duty commercial truck section. I
urchased mine from a local auto parts store. they had to order them, but
hey were in next day.
I would replace both batteries if they are over three years old as the older
attery will genrally tend to pull down the newer. it isn't mixing
anufacturers nearly so much as mixing the condition and charge
cceptance rates of the two.

 Chris, Seems this must be my day to be active on the list. I went to
 Exide's site this morning found 4D-NG4D, but not COM-4D-P. I need to replace
 one battery , is there any problem mixing battery manufactures in the same
 bank? I only have the original two batteries, no starting.


 Thanks
 Herb

 * Exide COM-4D-P* unless you are on a mooring or cruise off the grid for
 mor
 than a week at a time you can't beat these for the money. $135 each and
 more
 AH than the the marine deep cycle Nautilus Gold.
