I'm looking for a Hefty Battery that can handle Cranking, 2 Lowrance Units, NMEA 2000 Network, Live Well, and the Dash, with Power at the end of the day to start the Motor and get me home.
Group 31 with the most reserve capacity that you can find (usually the heaviest battery for it's size). Deka, East Penn, and AC Delco are all very good, but there are plenty of others.
I sell Cat Battery's Group 31 1000 cca at around 110.00 bucks but bought
an Interstate type 24m cranking batt from The Tullahoma Tracker store yesterday for $60.00.
I figured the cat batt would work but wanted the universal type 24m that can handle deep discharges better than a Group 31.
If it helps you any, I purchased a super start marine battery from O'Reilly auto parts. I read that they are East Penn batteries that are private labeled by O'Reillys. I have had mine for over a year now and I am very happy with it.
Adrian, go to the top right of this page and search google under the fishingTN.com tab... type in Batteries and you will get all type of past posts on this subject ... <'TK><
