AGM Batteries

[art bjornestad]

I recently paid a visit to Lifeline batteries in southern California a
nd discussed engine batteries with the manager. He advised against
AGM batteries for my Prevost starter batteries as the batteries were
too close to the heat from the engine. He stated that AGM batteries
were superior to all other batteries except that they do not do so
well when exposed to a lot of heat. I have wet cells now and he
suggested Trojans when the current ones fail. I am a lurker and have
no idea how near the batteries are to heat on a Blue Bird.
