Default "Dry cell" batteries....

I'm switching over from"wet" to "dry". I used to always use wet acid batteries due to the fact that I couldn't justify the price spread between the two. Now that a decent automotive acid battery is around the $100.00 mark and a dry is $130-150 range it's going to be competitive. The dry type seems to be more flexible too in that you can use them as a deep-cycle as well. They're familiar with fast charge caracteristics. More friendly that way.
I'm tired of stale batteries in my boat as well as my tractors and I've heard way more good than bad over the recent years about them.
I'm done with wet cells...
