Those enhanced flooded batteries just came out, we haven't even had any dropped off here yet even though we are a dealer for Interstate. Because they are so new, we can't give any actual feedback, but the rep talked a big game (of course). Time will tell. Maybe an in between option to old batteries vs Lithiums.

In case it might be like that where you live OP worth a shot looking around if youre in the area. Might work out for you like it did me (2 29DC with 2 year warranty, and a 24 starting with those 1000 CCA when my previous one had 625)

I had flooded sealed cell batteries before and I'm not a fan of them. Maybe this new version is better, but I had bad luck with them in the past in only a couple years. If your going to stay with a flooded cell battery, stick with one you can check the water level and most importantly check it with a a hydrometer. That way you can tell if a cell is getting weak. But that's just me.

I quit using Interstate marine batteries many years ago. They just did not hold up well for me.

Has to be an improvement over the worst battery ever- the interstate 31agm. What a POS, had 2 of them and interstate wouldn’t warranty the garbage anymore. Multiple people with the same issue.
