Help me pick out the best deep cycle battery
Its a single battery setup Hp500 engine no big stereo setup. I have the optima blue top at the moment but I am very dissappionted with this battery. I have had it for three years and like some of the red tops I have in my cars they just do not last. I guess I expected better quality for what these things cost. So what do you guys recommend for a good replacement?

SeaVolt from West Marine.
I have a set of the Dual Purpose ones in the Fountain for 5 seasons now. Every season I check them with the battery tester and they PASS. Just going to wait till one dies to see how long they will last. |
If it is your primary starting battery, then you realy don't want a deep cycle. You really should get a dual purpose marine battery. 3 years is about average for a lot of marine batteries. I would just get an Interstate group 27.
Actually, though I would add a second battery and a battery switch. |

Went thru 3 1000A dual purpose batteries in 4 yrs. Never had any luck with them. I read where they are too much of a compromise to be worth it. Switched over to Interstate deep cycle and starting in both my my boats, never another problem. For your application, a regualar starting battery sounds like the best choice.
