Re: Battery question
Good point, you seem to speak from experience :-). So, lets say I
eventually get a new winch (a nice Warn 9.5ti). I am thinking that I will
not have to buy a new battery just because I installed a new winch. But,
when I have to eventually replace my battery, what should I shoot for? I
would probably want something sealed like an Optima, but do I look for
anything else (like maybe a deep cycle)?
