Battery replacement

[Rondo]

Just found out my Interstate RV/Marine Deep Cell has gone belly uup! Any suggestions on what to go with? Advanced Auto here recommended going with the Optima dry cell marine. Anyone had any experience with the Optima batteries? Don't do much Boondocking so probably don't need to go to the dual golfcarts or similar. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated!

It really depends on your usage. You can get by with the standard marine deep cycle battery if you are a casual camper/traveler. If you're full time I recommend spending the money and get AGM batteries. I can give you manufacturers names if you want. PM me. I believe it's better than mentioning vendors names here in the MOC forum, unless the moderators say it's okay.
