Who sells the least expensive AGM?

I don't need it for the bike, I need it to leave connected charging in my service van so it's ready to demonstrate landscape and LED lighting I sell and install.
Have been pulling the bike battery but today I need it and don't have it.
 
See Steve for the ones we used they were only about $60 and one was slightly faulty ( case leak around the terminal) and they replaced it for him no hassles...
The one in the Rats Nest didn't get used for 5 months and started the bike with over 2mins of winding over to build up fuel with the thermo fan turned on ( some dope forgot that he had an override switch in the dark shipping container)

My Autozone AGM "Extreme Magna Power ETX18L" was $89.99 2 years ago and still working strong!

Same one I have, same price, from the same store.
Another idea....if you have a trailer sale/repair place in your area, see if they have any batteries in stock. A lot of trailers use a small 12v battery to operate the trailer brakes in the event the trailer comes unhooked from the tow vehicle. My car trailer has that set-up.... the battery is pretty small....about the size of a 6v lantern battery, but they have spade terminals on them. :good:

Like dis un!!

Adventure Power UTX24HL is $80.75 at Amazon. That's what's in the '83 now, and is the warranty replacement Tony mentioned. Maybe a little cheaper on Ebay, but after you pay for shipping, not much difference.
 
I checked Wal-Mart online.
It says they have agm's starting at $21.
They are lower capacity but for light demo I don't need a bike size, in fact smaller is better suited.

Thanks guys.

Is a battery for emergency lights an option? Like those that come on when the power goes off.
I thought about those, which I do get once in a while but I don't know if they could be left on the van charge without having to 'baby sit' it.
I might go with that $18 ebay. Sheesh, including shipping!

I kept it simple.
Wal-Mart 3 ah dry charge AGM, $25 local.
Plenty for what I need.

Looks like a garden tractor battery. :good:
 
3ah is the size of most drill battery's nowadays and is fairly small. GL1100 battery is 20-25ah...
