Die hard is $65 cheaper per battery.
I use the Interstates. This is my 2nd set of them - they last about 2.5 years. I have an on board charger and keep them charged at all times. I'm up for a new set this year, was leaning toward Lithiums, but not sure yet - they are very pricey.

For better value over long haul, I would go with lithium. Capt Pete
Re: Trolling Motor Batteries
Thanks,ghauser. So I was able to get the interstate 31 for $109 ea. Lithiums would be nice but pricey and as with everything else that price is going up. The last I saw a terrova 80 lb 72 inch shaft it was up to $3000! When I first found one in January it was $1949

Re: Trolling Motor Batteries
I replaced my lead acid batteries because they wouldn't last the day during the 2nd year I invested in the AGM batteries....well worth it
