I'm looking to replace my 8 existing batteries in my all electric bus. I want to upgrade to a maintenance free series. Looking for sound suggestions of a "fair" priced battery that has had good lasting power. I need to do a quick buy since my existing batteries are really in bad shape (just bought the bus). Recommendations?? Napa, Duracell, Interstate, Trojan????

I have Full River and at 3 years old they seem to be doing fine.

I have Lifeline AGM batteries. Zero maintenance and can be mounted upside down if necessary. They don't off gas so less of that to deal with. I think that the Full River batteries that el Rojo mentioned are also AGM batteries.

Big fan of Lifeline AGMs. They are pricey, but great performance.

Thanks to all...I've been off-line deep inside the Smokey's....wound up just getting NAPA's Deep Cell GC's....they are doing great, and NAPA was outstanding with a Military Discount option....Wound up getting some quality Batt's for a very low price...Won't be owning this bus for more than 24 months, so it's a sound option considering the price, warranty and life-span of the batt's. And you are all right - Lifeline's are seriously NICE!!! $$'s were to much for my pockets.
