AGM’s

Postby tonyiiiafl » March 11th, 2024, 6:07 pm

I bought an Odyssey 4D AGM 174AH. I was going to use it as a start battery for many 390 454’s, then use the 2 GC AGM as house, and an odyssey GRP 24 for the genset. the 4D was a steel at West Marine for $350.00! Had not her thought. What about getting a group 31 AGM for start, hook 2 4D Odyssey AGM as house (380 SH, versus 210 for GC) . I guess the question is where to place the genset grp 24. I was thinking of under the dinette where the A/C is. Does anyone think that would be an explosion hazard? I will use Battery trays as the box or this may fit between the stringers. https://www.fisheriessupply.com/dyno-ba ... /batbox-4d

I guess i am asking if putting the battery (genset) in the area with the water heater and A/C would be a danger?
