Battery size

[Mac_Attack]

It's time for 2 new batteries. What size are you guys using, 24 or 27s. Mine will be used for maining starting and some electronics. Thanks Billy Mac

Group 24 seam to fit in any spot were you could use them.

24M7 Deka, 1000MCA I sell probably 25-30 of these a year, I've had two go bad because they were run all the way down and left down for over two months, otherwise, you can't beat them. BTW West marine sells the same battery for $45 more than a Deka dealer

I also like DEKA 24 series batterys , But Up here in NEW ENGLAND I now use INTERSTATE batterys, 1) 27 series cranking and 1) 24 series deep cycle . with another older (charged battery) on board just in case ,I have had very good luck with them over 3 years . But I maintain them all with a solar charger , just my 2cents

my answer is "the BIGGEST you can fit and afford" .... personally I only use 27's and bigger... 31's are my fav

I use 24's. Completely agree with Spare on the Deka batteries. 1000 MCA of brute force is hard to argue with. I got mine from BJ's wholesale club (Like Costco or Sam's Club) They had the best prices around here. Both my v's have them and I've not had any problems, ever, with them. My only exception is on my 12' rowboat that I have an electric trolling motor on. I use an Optima Bluetop deep cycle battery for that one.
