[Rhodes22-list] Batteries/corrected

[TN Rhodey]

Mike,

I have 2 Walmart Group 24 Deep Cycle marine batteries right next to water 
tank under v-berth. I have a Dual 10 AMP Marine Charger mounted on peg board 
and an A/B switch. My slip has shore power included so I stay plugged in to 
shore charging. My batteries are going on year7. I will replace with same. 
For my use the AGMs just don't make sense. Adding water is a little bit of a 
hassle but not really a big deal. I had planned on ading solar panel but it 
really hasn't been needed.
