Optima's are bad news. Really they are...
All AGM's are vibration sensitive, but some
are better than others. Best one on the Market
are made by Hawker, but they are commercial,
and for Telco etc., so I don't know if they are
easily available to the public, but might look
aroun on-line. Why AGM? What need do
you have that warrants AGM?

A fellow "Parker-er" is planning to replace his boat's two batteries and
is interested in going with AGM batteries. I use Optima AGMs, but I
haven't bothered to stay current with AGMs other manufacturers have
developed.

Anyone have any specific AGM manufacturer knowledge to share? I know
West Marine sells them, but I am not aware of the manufacturer, since
they private label.

Thanks.
