Deep Cycle Battery

[nabs]

Hey all,

Have to grab another battery as I will be running a 24v Electric in my boat soon. Anyone reccomend any specific brand? The one I currently have is just a cheapy but Im hoping to get another year out of it before I upgrade it.

Budget is $200 for a 110amp battery and dont know much about them so thought I would post here to see if anyone could shed some light on this for me

Thanks!

I dont think $200 is a realistic budget for a 110 amp hour deep cycle.

more like $275 and up.

Do you have to buy new nabs or any?

mate you can probably only afford a superchardge battery. they are 120amp hour and are under $200. they are a pretty good battery i had one in my last boat for 4 years powering my electric motor

295 will buy you a AGM at Gateway models at Wynham

mine was 370 but got it for 310 trade, save another hundred and get a decent battery

$200 sounds realistic to me? I had a look at one shop already and got quoted $180 for a supercharge.

Would love to spend heaps and get a top of the line one but cant afford it at the moment and jsut need something to get me by.

Khoi- Doesnt need to be new, just in good condition or close to new.

Ok so if I upped the budget to $300, what brands should I be looking at?

Pm Dassa he worked in the industry and can answer all questions.

Ritar or Haze are top quality batteries

I have two Ritar and they are a good battery

Nabeema get a Trojan 130amp deep cycle if you can stretch to $300

yes especially with a 15 year life

Just getting a cheapy for now. Dont want to buy a top end one and run it with my current old battery. Will hopefully grab 2 better quality ones at the end of the year.

Thanks all for the help. Much appreciated.

Cheers

biass boating have a 120a/hr exg for $289 (supercharge allrounder) or a 100a/hr agm for the same price(lion brand), just make sure they don't sell you a used one
