Location: Contrarian Island | i have the durations in my up north boat...I will be switching out my 7 yr old Trojan AGMs in my Ranger for the Durations this spring as they are getting weaker, how many guys are running 7 yr old wet cells and putting 300-600 hours on them a year?
..here's my take on AGM's vs Wet Cell batteries. I've always run AGM's the last 7 yrs..they rock...last all day pulling around my Ranger in big wind, never ever need to worry about filling them up/ checking them, having them in sub freezing temps...it's a piece of mind thing for me... most of the guys i know that put in the hours i do on the water each year w regular flooded cell batteries seem to go thru them every 2-3 yrs...so yah, maybe they are 2 x as much but maybe they last twice as long.... again, when i go on a trip the last thing i want is to worry about filling up batteries or them going bad....I've been happy w the Durations.... they do go on sale from time to time.
