Just a starting battery? Deep cycle?

I've been a fan of the costco deep cycle myself but if I were to need something more then I'd look at the sears diehard platinum deep cycle batteries. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

As for the pretty colorful Optima's? I wouldn't touch them with a 10' pole. Been burned by them before. Don't get me wrong. Their support even sent me a replacement battery which proceeded to last only 6 months. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />
