Duly noted. I am going to Duracell AGM as quick as I can. I was actually looking at 2 at Sam's yesterday but did not pull the trigger. The game I am playing allows me to spend $1,500/year on things that I would live to have for my RV that it did not come with as long as I deduct from it any repairs I had to pay out of pocket. The $1,500 comes from what I did NOT pay in extended warranty coverage. The new batteries will be $400. The difference will be... do I have to buy them as a repair (now); or can I wait until November '21 and buy as luxury? Then again, even if repair, I am not sure the extended warranty would have covered the batteries? (especially if they still register good despite losing some of its capability?)
