AGM batteries

bill12 · Guru

I was told that its not good to have a lead acid battery with an agm. Is this so, then why? I am buying a 150 amp hr deep cycle to run my new fridge for $310 in Brisbane QLD.

give the 12 volt shop a ring Al. I wont give advice on whether to mix batteries or not! and what type to get!

or take a look here! ........http://www.12volt.com.au/............you have one in Adelaide!

Using an AGM battery as an aux and a normal "flooded" or "wet" battery (that's the normal common or garden variety that comes with the car) as a main (starting) battery is not a problem provided you have a proper dual battery system installed. Note that a dual battery system should be installed regardless of the mix of batteries used for main and aux.

A week ago I bought 4 Fullriver DC115-12B AGM batteries (for the house system in the OKA) @ $308 each plus 1 Fullriver HGL120-12B (for cranking use) @ $330 From Alco Batteries on Grand Junction Road.
Their initial prices were substantially higher, but they will sell at the above if pressed.

Cheers,
Peter
