Also consider the large industrial batteries such as the Trojan
Industrial 2 v models, HUPs, IBE, etc.
They have longer cycle life, and therefore are a better deal in the long
run. Batteries are the weak link in off grid systems, so you want to
really make sure you're getting the right battery, and the right size as
well.
AGMs are great for GT, but not cost effective for larger off grid systems.
Also reread previous threads on batteries, not everyone has been happy
with the choices you list.
