UPS Gel Batteries for boats :)

[bigshrimpin]

Guys - I came across a pretty sweet deal this weekend on AGM Batteries and I thought I'd pass along the information. I went to a battery recycling/reconditioning shop in Sacramento called Big Hog Battery service to drop off some old cores. I got a pair of Northstar NSB100FT AGM batteries for $40 each military surplus. He offers a 2 year warranty on all batteries. If you guys ever need batteries . . . might be worth calling around to some of these little shops to see what they have. Big Hog has a pallet of group 24 shaped UPS AGM batteries too that are $40 too.

Specs are better than the Optima Blue 31M which are $250/each new.
