Default Is there a thread on battery preference?

I see the sticky on the thread for battery comparison but I'm wondering what everyone's preferences are and why before I spend $1000 on a new set of batteries

It is reccomended to install a 48v (or 36v) to 12v dc converter for 12v stuff. This will draw power equally from all batteries for 12v stuff. Some people cheap-out and dont get one, but this will result in those 2 batteries being unbalanced with the rest of the batteries.

Here are 6v and 8v battery comparisons by their ratings. The more Ah you get, the more runtime in general.

Many of us run a 12v deep cycle battery for accessories. It would depend on how many things you are running and for how long. I have an extra 12v in all my battery carts for stereo, head/tail lights, under body lights, stereo/amp, & phone chargers.

So is it safe to say the crowns 260a/hr is better than the exide?

I'm running Trojan t-875's. I am not expert but after asking around and having virtually everyone in the industry tell me Trojan I decided it was worth the extra pelts.

So Far So Good.
