Thanks to all for the responses on my battery
questions. I was leaning towards the AGM battery due to the non leak factor and
some of you had mentioned that they were a bit more. I was thinking maybe
30%-40%. After checking with a company that sells all types, here are the
results: Group 24- regular battery-85 amp, $66.---- Group 27 gel battery 86 amps
$207------ Group 27 AGM battery 90 amps $235. That's 400% more than the regular
wet acid car battery. Unfortunately due to budget and keeping a sound marriage,
I will probably have to go the cheaper route and have them in trays incase of
spillage. If someone knows of a more affordable AGM battery in the 85 to 90 amp
range (12 volt) I would love to hear from them.
I also have some data from McMaster-Carr for those
who are in need of schedule 80 ss pipe fittings: 1/2"X3" sked 80 316 L nipple
$12.76 each Part #4475K44-----1/2"X3" sked 80 316 L coupling $6.80 each Part
#4452K344.
