Default Any agm battery recommendation

I know this probably has been covered before but maybe recommendations have changed.

I’m pretty sure the odyssey is a great battery but it’s pricey. I’ve heard the quality of optima has dropped.

any word on the Duralast Platinum, Deka intimidator or Exide?

The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low cost is forgotten..just cry once get Hawkers.

Deka are great. Nothing wrong with Optima. I just bought a generic no-name AGM for my motorcycle. Really if it's a routine AGM battery, brand name makes little difference. AGM is AGM.

I was very impressed with the design of the Weize 12v 100ah AGM Battery: Compact and sturdy construction, adaptable to different circumstances, Weize's Batteries minimize any possible acid spill without no need to check acid and water level frequently, it can generate 24V or 48V ranges without any problem. The choice of materials used in the design of this 12V 100Ah battery gives it exceptional durability. It features a heavy-duty and top-notch calcium alloy mesh known for its excellent and long-lasting performance.

With so many brands and models, all claiming to produce the best AGM battery, deciding on a final AGM battery is tough because it is something that should meet your needs and at the same time give you some perks.

My Advanced Auto AGM platinum lasted 5 years. Replaced it with the same one. Funny how with these modern vehicles you get no advanced warning that death is imminent...
