Re: [AFMUG] Where do you buy AGM batteries
Actually, it was Energizer batteries at Sam's club (they are actually
Johnson Controls batteries). The exact same AGM battery is also now sold
at AutoZone (branded Autozone). It is about $20-30 more per battery though.

I think an 8D is something like 275 Ah. I have some sites with 2 of
those in series. And some with 8 x 100 Ah.
I have a fair number of NEMA boxes with strings of 26 or 33 Ah batteries
in the bottom, one 48 VDC site has four 33 Ah in series for about 1600 watt
hours. That can be over a day of runtime depending on what you’re powering.

We use the Exide RF31D. AGM and Threaded Studs on Top. Exide has a
local warehouse to us, so we pickup on Willcall, but Amazon has them for
$220 w/ Prime shipping. I think on Willcall, we pay somewhere in the

Re: [AFMUG] Where do you buy AGM batteries
We have generally gotten ours through SunWize. Their prices are usually
as good as anywhere else, and they can get them shipped to you in a
couple of days (at least here on the west coast). You need to get a
dealer account with them, and the minimum order is $500, but our
battery orders always go well above that level.
We've typically gotten Concorde SunXtender batteries, but SunWize
carries at least a couple different brands.

+1. I think the smallest we have anywhere is 100ah. Most are in the
200-300 ah range.

Re: [AFMUG] Where do you buy AGM batteries
I might have to sign up.
We have generally gotten ours through SunWize. Their prices are
usually as good as anywhere else, and they can get them shipped to you
in a couple of days (at least here on the west coast). You need to get
a dealer account with them, and the minimum order is $500, but our
battery orders always go well above that level.
We've typically gotten Concorde SunXtender batteries, but SunWize
carries at least a couple different brands.
