Now I am getting confused. I thought Group refers to size? if so how it possible that Optima D34M be smaller than Group 29.

I google and could not find the rate ah or reserve time the OPTIMA D34M AGM BlueTop batteries?

Final, given both batteries have two warranties, maintenance free, why pay $170 more per battery for AGM? I know the Wal Mart EverStart Battery has 120ah so total of 240ah.

Unless I am missing something all I (think) want in a battery...

1. Fit with post not anywhere near risk of hitting something
2. ah I want at least 105 ah each but would like to have 120 ah or more / per battery
3. Maintenance Free ( when it dies I do what I do for my flashlight, take batteries out and put in new ones)
4. Price For $87 / battery versus $248/ battery; I could get new batteries Everstart batteries every year or even every other year if it were necessary.
5. Battery brand sold in common places so I could bring it for exchange if warranty situation did occur.
