[QUOTE="customcj7, post: 644558, member: 3103"] I run a Perko switch on mine. Keeps them isolated when I want, and then in parallel if needed. And for batteries, I typically go with one with a good warranty. I've had Optimas (before they sucked), AGMs, standards, etc. They have all failed, some early, some late. These days I want to make sure that if one fails early, I've got a warranty to change them out. My two boat batteries are Wal-mart specials. Haven't left me stranded in 4 years of loud tunes and a lot of abuse (even 2 winters with no trickle). If they fail this year, no biggie, warranty, and I'll change them out. If they make it another year or so, I'll be pleased. With new batteries these days, anything over 5 years with the abuse we put them through is good enough for me. I just put two brand new O'reillys in my rig. 3 yr warranty. Only damn place I could find with my size/layout requirements. [/QUOTE]
