In this video we fit 4 x 110 Ah AGM batteries to replace our boat’s old house battery bank. We spent very little considering how much money we will save whilst living at anchor…

Marine batteries are definitely not created equally. Whilst searching for our batteries we had many things to consider: Dimensions and price being primary considerations. However, some cheap ‘Deep Cycle Marine Leisure’ batteries have a life expectancy of just 70 recharge cycles! You may be able to get these batteries cheaply, but they are a false economy…
Lithium Ion batteries are the top of the range with 2000 + recharge cycles, but with each battery costing a small fortune, these were out of the equation for us.
We went for AGM Deep Cycle batteries with an expected lifetime of 600 cycles @ 50% Depth of Discharge. We will have 400 watts of solar panels installed on our boat keeping these batteries charged so we expect them to last us a very long time.
We got our batteries at a very good price here: https://www.alpha-batteries.co.uk/boat-batteries/
The church we visited is called All Saints Church and is in Frindsbury. The church dates from 1075 and one of the bells they ring there to this day was originally cast in 1260!
