[RE-wrenches] AGM battery recommendations

[Ron Young]

New kid on the block is Lead Carbon AGM type batteries that use activated carbon and graphene. I have supplied a few sets of these but because they are so new up here there is no real solid reliability gauge based on user experience. I’d be interested to know if any others have comments regarding these. They claim long cycle life, significantly reduced battery sulfation and rapid charge with a price comparable to other AGM's.
