Re: Help w/AMG deep cycle marine battery

Discharged? Sorry a newbie so not versed in the lingo.

Re: Help w/AMG deep cycle marine battery

I did consider that they don't like the BRC heat, but then wouldn't everyone have this issue? Question: since I'll have solar setup to keep them charged on p...

Help w/AMG deep cycle marine battery

I've got two of these monsters bought exclusively for use on playa (swamp cooler, lights, etc.) and despite what I thought were good maintenance habits (and only one having been used once, the other never used) both are messed up (the tester says to replace). I've tried draining them (not too far, a...
