Looking at Interstate or Odyssey or Bosch even DieHard or the walmart brand. Want a very high quality battery that will last. I think AGM is the way to go?
Yes, AGM are simply flooded lead acid with fiberglass mats between the plates to help with durability from vibration was the take I got from them. I've used them in motorcycles, snowmobiles, ATVs. Never found them to last any longer but they are typically "sealed" so no leakage.Aren't AGM, (Absorbent Glass Mat), VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid), 'flooded' and gel (silica instead of a mat) all using lead plates and sulfuric acid as the electrolyte?
It comes down to simply a purchase cost issue.
