AGM Batteries have a significant advantage, they do not need water!
These are a great choice where the batteries are hard to get to or the owner would rather not have to check them. They do however have their own requirements for charging and equalizing.
I chose Golf Cart type and will change them out after about 5 years or so. My Engine Batteries just get changed out every 2-3 years simply because.
AGM Batteries are more expensive but do make sense in some applications.
