My local battery shop has 3 types of sealed batteries. They have a regular starting battery. They have a dual purpose battery. Lastly, they have a deep cycle battery. Which one do I need?

Starting battery - 100ah, 850ca, $99

Dual purpose - 125ah, 900ca, $105

Deep cycle - 170ah, 1000ca, $115

Are they AGM or just "maintenance free"?

Just maintenance free.. Cheapest agm is a deka $189, 100ah, 850ca.. I mean agm would be my first choice but price is the killer..

I would do the agm save your $ until you can afford it

What battery group do you need? (size) There are places you can by Deka 2nds (blems) for a lot cheaper!

I can afford 1 agm but I need 2. I was told that I could not use a agm battery with a flooded battery. Something about the agm draining the flooded so I was told either 2 agm's or 2 flooded and not to mix.. Are the flooded batterys really that much worse?
