3rd battery

My 2018 Sunseeker original batts are loosing capicity. I'm going with Costco 27DC but adding a 3rd one in the closest storage compartment to the main batt box. I will save money in the long run over getting those very high priced alternatives.

If they're not sealed Lead Acid batteries and have the caps shown in the Wally Whirled Everstart battery, carefully pry the caps open, and I'd check the water level in them if they aren't regularly maintained. There usually is a "ring" in each cell's fill hole that shows where the water level should be. Fill only with distilled water (! $1.00 per gallon at Wally Whirled).

Then, if they're still not holding a charge, Lone Ranger them (ta-da-dump, ta-da-dump, ta-da-dump-dump-dump-dump - William Tell Overture here).
