Fullriver Sealed Battery

[Pete Masterson]

For what it's worth, the previous owner of my 'bird used Deka AGM
batteries. They're now about 3 years old and despite some abuse by
the dealers that held the coach for about 6 months, they seem to be
in rather good shape. See <http://www.eastpenn-deka.com/> for
information.

(I have six 6-volt batteries. I can run more than 24 hours on the
dual inverters (2 x 2500 watts) before they get down to where I must
run the generator to charge them back up. I also have three smaller
12-volt Deka AGM batteries for the engine starter.)
