In Reply to: AGM batteries anyone running them ? posted by Bruce in BC [24.207.112.140] on Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 00:34:32 :
I'm running a Red Top 6volt Optima in my PW. I've run dual Yellow Top Optimas in my Jeeps for 20 years.
As has been mentioned, Optimas are a little misunderstood. I use a Battery Minder charger on it to keep it maintained. These chargers have a special "desulfication" program especially for AGM batteries. Works well. Here is the link to the Battery Minder Chargers:
