Are these workable batteries for upgrade?

Just wondering why these cheaper than Trojans, especially considering they have the Duracell brand...

I took a chance and just recently bought 2 of the 235ah. The reviews are good, we'll see. I don't know what the warranty is on other brands, but these are only 12 months.

Well, the Trojan T-105 is 12 months replace or repair, with another 12 months pro-rated credit. But at more than 3 times the cost.

I cannot say how they compare to T105's, but they have solved my issues. We dry camp 3-5 days and are often constrained on generator run times. The old marine battery didn't cut it. I was going to spring for a solar setup. My two SLIGC115 batteries have me rethinking the necessity for that.

The bad news is; I have only had them for a few months and a couple of trips. It takes a while to figure out a battery's worth in the long term. But in the short term, they have made me happy.

Make sure you buy online to pickup in store for a 10% discount.
