I need a deep cycle battery to replace one of my older batteries. My motor guide is a 24v system. I've already replaced one of the 2 batteries but need to replace the 2nd because both were old.

I bought an Interstate Battery but that was at Lake Fork a few weeks ago. Paid about $130. Where can I buy another battery similar price?


Thank you Lord for the gifts in my life

wallmart group 29


COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

Wal-Mart, should be about $75. My last set lasted just under 6 years.

I go wal mart for trolling batteries. The ones in my boat had an 07 sticker on them when I changed them in 2011. That sold me considering I had been thru 2 warranty sets of optimas in 2 years.

Nice thing about Wal-Mart Everstart batteries is no matter where you are if you need a warranty replacement, you can always find a Wal-Mart!!!

Walmart has gotten tougher on their warranty recently. I had 2 go bad and when I tried to return them the took them out to check them out, put them on a fast charger and said they were just fine only needed to be charged. I replaced them with Academy batteries the next week.

I buy all my batteries at Sam's club. I have never had a problem returning them if a cell goes bad. They always check them for me first and will let me know if needs to be replaced. They sell cheaper batteries at around 75-80 dollars all the way up to the 180 dollar optimax batteries (the ones that looks like 6 or 8 canisters).
