Final question (hopefully on this ! )
I can source the following locally and at a good price.
The first would be the starter battery (for which it appears to be well suited)
BLUETOP® Deep Cycle
OPTIMA BT DC 5.5 BLUETOP batteries are dual-purpose batteries. They can be used in any deep-cycle (marine accessory, house applications, trolling motor, bow thrusters) or starting applications.
Benefits:
Starting and dual-purpose (starting and deep-cycling) models available.
Lasts up to 3 times longer than other batteries.
More power in the initial 1, 2, 5 and 10 seconds of the starting process than comparably rated conventional lead-acid batteries.
Constant performance quality keeps your battery running at the same level even as it's being discharged.
Ideal for seasonal use, fully charged it can sit unused for up to 12 months at room temperature (or below) and still provide the power necessary to start your boat's engine.
15 times more resistant to vibration than other batteries.
Nonspillable with complete fitment flexibility; can mount in almost any position.
the second for the house battery
Good choices or not??? , before I pull the trigger !
thanks
