    Could've gotten a refund if I wanted, this battery was the one I was looking at getting originally until someone mentioned the marine battery.

    Hmm that cat battery would be nice as a second battery but would take a bit of work to fit it under the bonnet and not destroy the guard. But would be do able. Might be a plan when the marine pro I have kicks the bucket

    Site looks good mate but unfortunately I need a new battery today!
    vib's are what marine batteries are designed to handle.
    there's no suspension on a boat.
    I see you are not impressed some how.
    just food for thought.

    which would you rather 5mile off shore a battery that's not up to the task or a quality marine battery.
    I know which I'd choose.
    Yeah I know your not going off shore.
    what about that track you wish to go and explore.
    where the nearest hospital is 200k away and your phone has no reception !!.

    Marine batteries often have a second set of terminals which is handy for powering all of your devices.

    The plate locks inside are thicker and stronger than normal start batteries so yes, they will handle vibrations better.
