Batteries
SeaGel/AGM vs regular batteries:
Any thoughts on these? Performance vs. cost?
Need to repower the r/v and might have the extra ~$100 (over the regular cost) to upgrade the batteries...
thoughts/experiences/

I've been using them for quite a while now. Much better than regular batteries, typical life has been about 4-5 years vs 3 for normal batteries. They hold a charge well and you don't have to worry about them.

I wrote the cost into a grant, and forgot I did...
