AGM
Truly maintenance free, can be installed in any orientation, lasts a long time.

WALMART. :laugh:
I know, you think not great quality, but I've run 2 of them over the past 6 yrs with no problem at all.
Get yourself a Battery Tender Junior, and it will double the life of your batts.
I like the AGM's as well, but they do have a slightly lower cranking power than the filled batts, but I dont think it makes too much difference anyways. They are more durable, and less prone to sulfation.
