Best place to buy trolling motor batteries

Barnakiller

I have had a pair of AGM batteries from West Marine that have lasted about 5 years, but are not as strong as they once were. I believe I want to go with AGM's again (group 27), but anything that size that I can get 5 years or so out of would be fine. Just wondering where most buy batteries around here. I paid $300 for the pair and would like to keep it around that. My Port Supply discount is not as good as it once was, since I don't spend thousands at West Marine. Thank you for any input.

I just bought 4 Cabela's AGMs...I think its a good battery for the price. I dont know who makes them for Cabela's but they seem pretty good.

Sears platinums are a very good AGM, excellent warranty. If you look for sales you might find them for under 200, 150 was five years ago.

Duracell AGM group 31s @ Sam's club for about $150.

Marine surplus down off 15st east always treats me well. 15th and like 67th ave or so

I didn't think of Sears, or Marine Surplus. Good idea. Seems like there is nearly always a way around paying retail if you do a bit of research.

Might be worth checking out Electro Battery. I don't know about their AGMs but I buy their $40 reconditioned lead acids for my truck, boats, and camper and they last as long as new.
