Bargainshore.com has some great deals right now on VMax batteries. Free shipping and $25 off plus discounts when you buy higher quantities. The VMax batteries have a lot of great options and some with really serious amp hours ratings. I just ordered a pair of their MR137 AGM’s to go along with a pair of Lifeline GPL-31XT’s I already have. The Lifeline’s cost me $790 shipped for the pair in 2017 with 125AH. I got the 2 VMax’s for $515 shipped from bargainshore and they have 120AH. They also carry lower capacity and some much higher capacity versions and lithium’s($$$) as well.

Thanks Henro - Those VMAX batteries look great and people give them very high marks. They always seem to make the list when you do a google search for "best deep cycle batteries". My one concern is they are AGM...I do have an onboard charger so need to check and see if my charger has an AGM setting since I believe the charger requirements are a bit different then lead acid batteries... My other concern is charging them from my boat engines alternators where I have 2 lead acid starting batteries as well.. Wondering if I should be concerned about putting an AGM in the mix or would I be better advised to keep everything lead acid?
