IMPO, our high-end coaches (including Pete's) :-) deserve Lifeline AGM's! I won't put anything less in my LXi. Eventually I'd like to install Odyssey AGM start batteries into my chassis bank.

We should come up with a thermal imaging camera to scan for hot spots on our coaches.

And, look at Cap'n Jane coming to the rescue. Gregg you're a very lucky man!

The PO paid $1572 to have those F/C batteries installed in my bus last April. I added a $400 watering system. I had Tom quote me his price for AGMs. He has the best prices on Lifeline 4D AGMs at $3200 including freight.

The bad battery is being replaced under warranty at no charge. I would love to switch to AGMs but I just can not justify throwing away 6 near new batteries and an expensive watering system. But when it's time to replace these batteries, it's AGMs in my bus.
